Red Sea Security

The Great Decisions organization in Reston, Virginia, in cooperation with the Fairfax County Public Library interviewed me on the subject of “Red Sea Security.”  The 118 minute podcast, moderated by Michael Carpenter of Great Decisions, took place via Zoom on 27 April 2020 but did not appear on You Tube until 22 May 2020.

This wide ranging discussion covers both sides of the Red Sea, the war in Yemen, the conflict between Saudi Arabia and the UAE, on the one hand, and Iran, on the other, the Qatar/Turkey versus Saudi Arabia/UAE alignments, freedom of navigation in the Red Sea, the military bases in Djibouti, Israel’s role in Africa, and recent developments in Ethiopia, Sudan, and South Sudan.
