The international pressures calling for an end to the war waged on Yemen have intensified. Many are wondering whether the international demands to stop the war will see their way to implementation this time round, or whether these demand – especially from Western governments – are part of a PR campaign aimed at absolving certain parties from their moral and political responsibilities in light of the massacres in this country that have turned what used to be referred to as ‘Happy Yemen’ [Arabia Felix] into ‘Unhappy Yemen.’
There are no doubt reasons that render an end to the war on Yemen likely. Among the most important are what Hezbollah’s Secretary-General Hassan Nasrallah referred to when he said that if stopping the war is likely, this is because the Saudi-led coalition backed by the Western governments, headed by the U.S., has reached the conviction that the war is at a stalemate and there is no hope that it can be won militarily. For this reason, the continuation of the war with all its human losses, as well as the development of the Ansarullah’s missile capabilities, the serious deterioration in the situation in Southern Yemen, and the strong conflicts between the various armed formations fighting under the banner of the ‘Arab coalition’ – are all factors that force an end to this war because its continuation will have negative consequences on the ground.
