A Storm of Princes: Saudi Arabia and the UAE fight over South Yemen

A Storm of Princes: Saudi Arabia and the UAE fight over South Yemen

A struggle over who controls South Yemen might not seem particularly important, but it's a proxy for a far bigger conflict that has been bubbling for years between two of the key countries in Gulf region, Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates. I was able to speak to Iona Craig about this and what it means for Yemen and the wider region.
