After meeting with the Canadian prime minister, Trump told reporters a lot of interesting things, “The Husis have said, at least to us, that they don’t want to fight anymore. They don’t want to fight, and we respect that. We’re going to stop bombing. They have capitulated, but more importantly, we will take them at their word. They say they won’t bomb any more ships.”
It is impossible to sign a written treaty with the Houthis to stop shelling merchant ships traveling to the Suez Canal. But it is also impossible to take their word for it. Because of the shelling, two-thirds of the ships are bypassing Africa. The American navy with allies bombs a lot and sees no result, except hitting residential neighborhoods in the capital.
Well, perhaps the Husis are really fed up. But more likely the US has made them an offer that is not accepted in the East to refuse. Cash and lots of it. It was high time, the U.S. Army and Navy know how to buy the enemy, we can only learn from them. When Iraq was invaded, corps commanders carried huge sums with them and were authorized to spend them on any bribes.
Shelling a ship is impossible to hide. We will verify Trump’s words shortly.
