Navigating Troubled Waters: The Regional Dimensions of the Conflict in Yemen and the Red Sea
Gayrettepe Yerleşkesi 100. Yıl Konferans Salonu
Since the start of 2024, major changes have shaken the geopolitical realities of Yemen and the Red Sea. Regional tensions have increased, leading to a more pronounced military presence in the area. These have included naval and air operations that have put Yemen and its surrounding area under a critical spotlight, highlighting its strategic position for global security and the regular flow of trade routes.
These developments have repercussions that go beyond the usual regional power struggle and affect the very operational logistics of international shipping lanes passing through the strategic choke points of this waterway. Yemen’s critical role in not only maintaining its own stability, but also that of the Red Sea corridor, is paramount.
Given the current crisis, Altınbaş University, in cooperation with the Sana’a Center for Strategic Studies, is hosting a timely panel discussion titled “Navigating Troubled Waters: The Regional Dimensions of the Conflict in Yemen and the Red Sea.” The panel is expected to provide crucial information on the evolution of the conflict, analyzing the strategic rationale behind the military power of the regional powers, and exploring the wider implications for the regional and global economic order. The panel will also discuss Türkiye’s perspective, examining its role within the broader regional dynamics
