Trump says huthis asked US not to intervene in conflict with Saudi Arabia

Açoriano Oriental12 September 2026 at 20:35

The President of the United States, Donald Trump, announced today, in Dublin, that he held talks with Iran's pro-Iranian houthi rebels from Yemen. During these talks, the houthis asked Washington not to intervene in the conflict with Saudi Arabia.

The houthi rebels are an armed group that controls parts of Yemen and is supported by Iran. The conflict in the region involves a civil war in Yemen, where the houthis fight against the internationally recognized government, supported by a military coalition led by Saudi Arabia.

Trump made these declarations during a visit to Dublin, where the meeting took place. The position of the United States regarding the conflict in Yemen has been the subject of international debate, with various humanitarian organizations warning about the serious situation of the civilian population in the region.

Why this matters

This news is relevant for readers in Portugal and Europe because it reveals significant diplomatic developments in the Yemen conflict, a region that directly affects oil prices and global geopolitical stability. The possibility of direct talks between the US and the houthis represents a shift in the American approach to the Middle East, which could have implications for regional allies such as Saudi Arabia and for European security.
