The Biden administration’s approach to the Houthi rebels in Yemen has largely been ineffective. Despite ongoing missile and drone attacks against foreign shipping and U.S. naval assets, the U.S. has not pursued an aggressive enough policy to curtail Houthi activity. A more successful strategy would involve a combination of diplomatic engagement, military deterrence, and targeted financial and leadership actions. By working closely with Saudi Arabia, disrupting the Houthis’ foreign-based funding, and utilizing targeted military strikes, the U.S. could significantly weaken the group’s capacity and incentivize them to enter serious negotiations. This approach, while avoiding a ground invasion of Yemen, could help bring a conclusion to the conflict and restore stability to the region.
