00:00:26It will be until next time, happy day.
00:01:26The war in Western Asia has reached a critical turning
00:01:30point after Tehran's formal rejection of the Ceasefire proposal presented by Washington
00:01:33and processed through the mediation of Iraqi
00:01:37Prime Minister Ali Al- Saidi, whose nation, Iraq,
00:01:41suffers a severe deterioration in its relations due to recent
00:01:44Anglo-American and Saudi bombings against the
00:01:47Popular Mobilization Forces and Iraqi infrastructure in
00:01:51Karbala. At the same time, the armed forces of Yemen
00:01:54under the Ansarullah movement have reactivated their
00:01:58military operations with missiles, ballistic missiles and drones against
00:02:01Saudi oil infrastructure in Jizan and Yanbu, as a
00:02:05direct response to the siege and bombing of Saudi Arabia and the United
00:02:09States on the port of Hodeidah in
00:02:12Yemen. In the geopolitical sphere, analysts highlight
00:02:15the evident double standard of US
00:02:18diplomacy, because while Washington
00:02:21strangles the Iranian economy
00:02:24set for the definitive withdrawal of under severe sanctions and inspections by the International Atomic
00:02:27Energy Agency, it simultaneously accelerates
00:02:30with Saudi Arabia the 123 agreement for civil
00:02:33nuclear cooperation for 30 years, and this pact will allow the processing of
00:02:37uranium on Saudi soil and respond to the interests of the
00:02:40Pentagon to continue destabilizing peace in the
00:02:43region. The asymmetric response of the axis of
00:02:46resistance has paralyzed passage through the Bab al-Mandab Strait,
00:02:49forcing the diversion of 12% of global
00:02:53crude oil maritime trade, so that Saudi Arabia opens a
00:02:57new war front in Western
00:02:59the axis of Asia. And for that and more, let's put the point on
00:03:02the
00:03:09the rigorous application of law.
00:03:20action before the United
00:03:26The war of Saudi Arabia against Yemen
00:03:30began last Monday, July 13, when the Saudi
00:03:33Air Force bombed the runway of Sana'a International Airport
00:03:37do in Latin America what in the Yemeni capital. According to regional media in Western
00:03:41Asia, allegedly, the Saudi objective was
00:03:45to intercept and block the landing of a
00:03:48civilian flight from Iran. In the face of this
00:03:51aggression, the Political Bureau of Ansarullah has condemned the
00:03:56will remain immersed in poverty, so attack on Sana'a International Airport and
00:03:58at the same time made an appeal to the United Nations
00:04:02and the international community to fulfill their
00:04:05responsibility regarding the blockade that Yemen has
00:04:09suffered since 2015 by the Saudi Kingdom.
00:04:12Faced with Saudi Arabia's aggression, the Yemeni
00:04:16Army, in retaliation, fired several ballistic
00:04:19missiles towards the southern region of the Arab country,
00:04:23specifically against Abha airport. The president
00:04:26of the Supreme Committee
00:04:30for the Yemeni Revolution, Mohamed Al-Houthi,
00:04:33stated that the bombing of Yemen and its siege by
00:04:36the American aggressors.
00:04:40Last July 25, the Yemeni armed forces
00:04:43reported on two major military
00:04:47operations aimed at sensitive oil refineries
00:04:52hostilities, the head of in two Saudi cities located on the Red Sea, known as
00:04:55Jizan and Yanbu. The operations against
00:04:59the oil facilities were
00:05:01carried out with ballistic missiles and drones, a
00:05:05direct response to Saudi airstrikes on the strategic
00:05:09Yemeni port of Hodeidah.
00:05:12Following the recent escalation of Saudi Arabia against
00:05:16the Yemeni nation, on July 30, the leader of the
00:05:19Ansarullah movement, Sayed Abdul Malik
00:05:22Al-Houthi, denounced that Riyadh defends the
00:05:26interests of Tel Aviv and Washington in the
00:05:29region. Thus, the United States and
00:05:32Israel on one hand, and on the other hand, their general
00:05:36role in the Islamic nation, because it seeks
00:05:38to present itself as someone concerned about the reality of every Islamic nation.
00:05:43But at this level of activity, interest and intervention in the
00:05:47affairs of these peoples, it does so under the umbrella of the United
00:05:50States, Israeli, Zionist and in the service
00:05:54of the United States. Under direct US
00:05:56supervision, this rebound case led to an aggressive
00:06:00and unjust approach for Saudi Arabia. The aggression that
00:06:04Riyadh has undertaken against Yemen, taking into account this
00:06:07characteristic, does not constitute an isolated event at all, but
00:06:11rather it is concatenated. That story, then, is the
00:06:14desperate activation of a mechanism that is subordinate to that
00:06:18security architecture with Washington, that
00:06:21is, it is a mandate of the United States
00:06:24to attack Yemen and attack
00:06:28Iran and confront all those bastions that
00:06:32represent the fight against oppression and against
00:06:36hegemonism, the Western invasion
00:06:39of that region, the Saudi regime. What it seeks is
00:06:43desperately to neutralize those
00:06:46emerging poles under the mandate of the United States,
00:06:49no, uh, that is the
00:06:52correlate of Zionism in the region,
00:06:55so the real act as a gendarme that
00:06:58has broken this
00:07:01hegemonic power, enters
00:07:04maximum alert after joint US and Saudi attack on its
00:07:08territory. This aggression impacted headquarters of the
00:07:12Popular Mobilization Forces and a convoy of pilgrims in
00:07:15Karbala, leaving dozens dead and wounded, and in response, the
00:07:19Islamic resistance threatened with inevitable reprisals
00:07:22against US targets on Saudi soil and gave an
00:07:26ultimatum to the Baghdad government until August 7 to demonstrate
00:07:29its ability to defend national sovereignty, ahead of the
00:07:33September 30 deadline
00:07:37foreign troops.
00:07:39After years of hostilities and interference
00:07:43over its territorial sovereignty, the government of
00:07:47Iraq categorically announced the establishment of the
00:07:50deadline set to complete the withdrawal of the
00:07:53international military delegation and US
00:07:57troops. The tension reached its most
00:08:00critical level after the air offensives
00:08:04backed by Washington and pilgrims from the Holy
00:08:07City. In direct response to the aggression, the
00:08:11coordination framework and the National
00:08:14Security Council in an emergency meeting presided over by
00:08:18Prime Minister Ali Al-Saidi condemned
00:08:21any transgression and rejected turning Iraq
00:08:24into a scenario of regional conflicts,
00:08:27instructing the foreign ministry to take legal
00:08:33Nations Organization in accordance with international
00:08:35law. Likewise, last
00:08:38Thursday, July 30, the military spokesman for Iraq,
00:08:42Sabah Al-Numan, categorically denied that Iraqi
00:08:45territory had been used to carry
00:08:49out attacks against Saudi Arabia, stating
00:08:53that there is no evidence that attacks have been launched
00:08:56from Iraqi territory towards
00:08:59Saudi Arabia, and emphasizing that the government will not allow
00:09:03unilateral actions or weapons outside the control of the
00:09:07state. The government will not allow unilateral
00:09:10actions or weapons outside the control of the state,
00:09:13provoked by Riyadh against Iraqi
00:09:16territory, eh, demonstrates that symbiosis that I'm telling
00:09:19you about and it is the absolute subservience of the
00:09:23Saudi monarchy to the agenda of the Pentagon's
00:09:26power, so eh, striking
00:09:29Iraq, striking Iraq,
00:09:33Saudi Arabia seeks to destabilize the
00:09:36deep logistics and operational depth of
00:09:39the resistance movements operating in the region,
00:09:42which, by the way, these resistance movements
00:09:45in Iraq have
00:09:48stood up to
00:09:51the Iraqi government, demanding,
00:09:54even giving it a deadline to respond,
00:09:57to eradicate US
00:10:00bases from there. Simultaneously,
00:10:04US diplomacy has
00:10:06intensified its pressure on the Kingdom of Saudi
00:10:09Arabia to force its formal integration into
00:10:13the Abraham Accords, which indicate peace
00:10:17pacts to normalize diplomatic, commercial
00:10:20and security relations between the occupying state of
00:10:23Israel, the United Arab Emirates
00:10:26and Bahrain, signed in 2020 with the mediation
00:10:30of the United States. However, the formalization
00:10:34of the atomic pact with the Saudi Kingdom seeks the
00:10:37development of civil energy infrastructure,
00:10:40allowing the entry of commercial uranium with
00:10:43assistance and technology from American
00:10:46companies. If you realize the agreement with Saudi
00:10:50Arabia, they give them all the facilities, that is,
00:10:52on the one hand,
00:10:55eh, so you can see that it's a tremendous power struggle,
00:10:59on the one hand, you demand
00:11:02denuclearization from Iran, very strong inspection
00:11:06by the International Atomic Energy Agency, with that
00:11:09Argentinian Rafael Grossi, who is pro-
00:11:12Israel, eh, and on the other hand, you have that the
00:11:16agreement that was made with Saudi Arabia was very generous,
00:11:19because it was a direct agreement with the United States that did not require
00:11:23either the non-proliferation treaty or the
00:11:27issue of restrictions that other countries have, such as
00:11:30Iran, so on the one hand, you demand
00:11:33denuclearization
00:11:35and on the other hand, you don't allow Iran things that you will allow
00:11:39Saudi Arabia and you are nuclearizing Saudi
00:11:42Arabia, but you are also nuclearizing the Middle East,
00:11:45because I don't think Egypt will stand idly by,
00:11:48nor Turkey, when they are already with
00:11:52Israel granting exceptional atomic
00:11:55concessions through the 123 agreement, without the
00:11:59rigorous control of the International Atomic Energy Agency, the
00:12:03policy of double standards by Washington that is evident
00:12:06when contrasting the privileged treatment of Saudi Arabia compared to the
00:12:10situation of Iran, a nation that it subjects to suffocating sanctions
00:12:14and constant military threats to prevent its nuclear
00:12:17development, despite being a signatory to the non-proliferation
00:12:20treaty and under continuous inspection by the international
00:12:24Atomic Energy Agency.
00:13:01In the midst of World War II, the United States
00:13:04dropped the atomic bomb Little Boy on Hiroshima,
00:13:07Japan, causing massive destruction and the death of
00:13:11thousands. This event not only accelerated the Japanese
00:13:14surrender, but also marked the beginning of the nuclear era,
00:13:17forever transforming the course of world
00:13:20history. August 6, 1945,
00:13:221945,
00:13:25the United States bombs Hiroshima.
00:14:01The leader of the Yemen movement, Sayed Abdul
00:14:04Malik Al-Houthi, denounced that Saudi Arabia has prevented the development
00:14:08and production of oil in the provinces of Jawf and Mahra.
00:14:12Al-Houthi affirmed that as long as the country's economic resources remain under
00:14:16the control of the Saudi Arabian regime, the Yemeni population
00:14:21he warned that he will continue to confront these actions of submission.
00:14:26As a retaliatory measure against the air and maritime siege imposed by the Saudi
00:14:29forces, the Yemeni army blocked the transit of Saudi
00:14:33oil tankers and merchant ships in the Bab al-Mandab
00:14:36Strait. Likewise, the Yemeni Ministry of Foreign Affairs
00:14:40denied rumors about an alleged attack on a ship in an
00:14:44Egyptian port, clarifying that its military actions respond
00:14:47exclusively to the blockade and aggression of the Saudi
00:14:50regime.
00:14:53On July 31st, the Yemeni Ministry of Foreign
00:14:57Affairs made it clear that navigation in the Red
00:15:00Sea is safe and there is no justification for the fears
00:15:04that the Saudi regime is trying to sow in the
00:15:08region to get out of its difficult situation caused by supporting
00:15:11the interests of the White House. In the midst of the
00:15:17the Sana'a negotiating delegation, Mohammed
00:15:20Abdul Salam, announced that Saudi
00:15:23Arabia must understand that the safest
00:15:26way to achieve security is to end
00:15:30the aggression and lift the blockade. The Saudi
00:15:33regime must assume full responsibility for
00:15:37the... and the blockade it has imposed. In
00:15:40line with Mohamed, the leader of the Ansarullah
00:15:43movement, Sayed Abdul Malik Al-Houthi,
00:15:47denounced the siege of Saudi Arabia and Yemen
00:15:52Saudi ships in the Red
00:15:55Sea. This is how the Saudis are behaving
00:15:58these days. He says he is not besieging the Yemeni
00:16:01people. So why was Sana'a airport
00:16:05bombed with missiles?
00:16:08with American aircraft and under American supervision,
00:16:11why did they do that? It was not
00:16:15in the context of the siege, yes, the matter
00:16:17is clear, the Saudis seek to intensify the
00:16:20siege, therefore our direction as the Yemeni
00:16:24people was expressed by our people and demonstrated to the
00:16:27whole world in their warning meeting. The call
00:16:31to arms is a guideline that falls within the
00:16:34correct, necessary, inevitable and
00:16:38inescapable stance, no matter how much we keep silent, Saudi
00:16:42Arabia will not change its stance for humanitarian or
00:16:45inhuman reasons, they enjoy the suffering of our
00:16:48people, when they see the suffering, when they see
00:16:52cancer, when they see that they are dying because they cannot receive
00:16:55treatment because of them, because the flights
00:16:58are suspended and prohibited, the airports
00:17:01are closed because Saudi Arabia has control,
00:17:04it is the Saudi who is...
00:17:08it is the one who besieges. When our dear people
00:17:11turned the position initially, who
00:17:14assisted maritime navigation in Saudi Arabia and
00:17:17anchored. To equate one siege with another siege
00:17:21is a necessary stance.
00:17:24The Yemeni military reprisals in the Red
00:17:27Sea have caused a reduction in the flow of oil
00:17:31tankers linked to Riyadh through the Bab
00:17:34al-Mandab Strait. Analysts
00:17:38point out that these Yemeni actions have forced
00:17:41Saudi Arabia to redirect its
00:17:44exports through Egyptian ports,
00:17:48according to Western agencies,
00:17:50diverting Saudi exports through
00:17:53Egypt and the Suez Canal, passing through the Cape of
00:17:57Good Hope off the coast of Africa and continuing
00:18:01to the Indian Ocean towards Asian countries
00:18:05would take about 54 days, which implies a
00:18:08significant increase in shipping costs, estimated at approximately
00:18:122 million dollars
00:18:15per cargo, while if the Bab al-Mandab
00:18:19Strait route is used, it would only take 24 days
00:18:22to destinations like South Korea at a lower
00:18:25cost. This sovereign practice of Yemen in blocking the
00:18:29Bab al-Mandab
00:18:32Strait and striking the neuralgic interactions
00:18:35of the Aramco company, which is that company.
00:18:37This was born, as I said, in 1945, that is an American
00:18:41corporation, it responds then to
00:18:46that doctrine that I have been mentioning,
00:18:50which is asymmetric deterrence and
00:18:53strategic self-defense, so you can imagine
00:18:56that by blocking that 12%
00:18:59plus the 20% that crosses the
00:19:03Strait of Hormuz, these two, these two
00:19:06sea lanes. Strategic victims are coordinated
00:19:10between Iran and Yemen and put in check
00:19:13the
00:19:16US power
00:19:19and hit them where it hurts most. As
00:19:22we have said, the operational blockade in the Bab al-Mandab Strait
00:19:26has forced the diversion of more than 12% of global
00:19:29crude oil maritime trade, pushing the price of Brent crude above
00:19:32$87 per barrel, with a cumulative increase greater than
00:19:3615%. At the same time, liquefied natural gas in Europe rose
00:19:4020%, an energy escalation that directly
00:19:43impacts the cost of food, electricity and the
00:19:46basic basket, so the World Bank projects a 0.4
00:19:50point cut in global gross domestic product
00:19:53growth, due to inflation. In the midst of this
00:19:56scenario, the humanitarian operations coordination center in
00:19:59Sana'a, Yemen, denied rumors about the collection of
00:20:02maritime tolls in the area, confirming that the transit
00:20:06of ships through the
00:20:08Bab al-Mandab Strait remains free and with no plans to
00:20:11impose future According to reports from
00:20:15Bloomberg and Financial Times, the logistical
00:20:18paralysis in the Red Sea keeps global
00:20:21energy supply chains under strong tension,
00:20:24affecting the usual transit of 8.8
00:20:27million barrels per day of oil and derivatives
00:20:31and forcing shipping companies to emergency reorganize
00:20:34their global maritime routes. The International
00:20:38Energy Agency categorized
00:20:41the situation as a critical distribution
00:20:44failure, generating a 12% jump in
00:20:47maritime freight rates. This increase responds to
00:20:51the forced diversion of oil tankers around the
00:20:54Cape of Good Hope, which adds thousands of nautical
00:20:58miles to each voyage and saturates the operational
00:21:01capacity of hydrocarbon transport. All
00:21:05these cuts, in addition to affecting oil, are
00:21:08affecting the fertilizer
00:21:11market. Eh, a large quantity of
00:21:14fertilizer is produced in the region, which is a derivative of gas, urea in
00:21:17particular, which was being shipped. While
00:21:2020% of the world's oil and another 14% pass through
00:21:24these two straits, the truth is that more than
00:21:2740% of the world's water passes through these areas. By not being able
00:21:31to deliver fertilizers to the markets, food
00:21:34security will be seriously affected. International
00:21:38agencies confirm that the structural delay of ships
00:21:41puts pressure on the operating costs of heavy
00:21:45industry and electricity generation in Europe and
00:21:49Asia, threatening to freeze activity in
00:21:52manufacturing sectors dependent on gas.
00:21:55At the macroeconomic level, the lengthening of routes
00:21:59has triggered logistical consumption, demanding about
00:22:03350,000 additional
00:22:06barrels of diesel for bunker. This operational
00:22:09overload pressures general inflation, threatening
00:22:12to keep consumer price indices above the
00:22:152% annual target established by the
00:22:19main monetary
00:22:22authorities. In the retail market, gasoline in
00:22:25the United States climbed to an average of
00:22:28$4.10 per gallon, with projected peaks of
00:22:32$4.55.
00:22:34Firms like Goldman Sachs warn that if vulnerability
00:22:38in the area persists
00:22:41in the last quarter, the risk premium could fix
00:22:44Brent between $120 and $150 per
00:22:48barrel, pushing importing countries towards a
00:22:52technical recession. This blockade,
00:22:54eh, well, look, it's
00:22:58a it's a tool, this
00:23:02artery, this Yemeni artery, this maritime
00:23:04artery, when drastically interrupted,
00:23:07supertankers, those
00:23:10container ships, those ships have to, as
00:23:13I said, make that detour and
00:23:16lose a lot of money in that
00:23:20making that detour around
00:23:24Africa to get there, so that creates an inflationary
00:23:28spiral, a structural crisis in
00:23:30the West, this, this, this creates an excessive
00:23:34increase in freight costs, in maritime insurance, in energy,
00:23:38it inevitably translates into sharp
00:23:41inflationary pressures for all Western consumers, and I think
00:23:45that is the most powerful weapon that
00:23:49resistance has, Iran, Yemen, Iraq,
00:23:52etc., eh, well, eh,
00:23:55evidencing the unsustainability of an imperial economic model that can no longer
00:23:58guarantee global stability through
00:24:01coercion, nor military coercion, nor colonial
00:24:05plunder, so we are witnessing the defeat, a historic
00:24:09defeat of
00:24:12imperialism, an imperialism that will
00:24:14come from Western Asia with its tail between its
00:24:18legs to want eh, in what it considers its
00:24:21backyard, Latin America and the Caribbean, to try to
00:24:27it failed to do and from where it was completely
00:24:31defeated in Western Asia. Consumer
00:24:34countries are evaluating releasing up to 400 million barrels of
00:24:37strategic reserves. However, the specialized firm
00:24:41Rystad Energy points out that the central problem does not lie in
00:24:44production, but in the logistical capacity for distribution.
00:24:48For its part, Bloomberg data
00:24:50shows that global investments in exploration and refining
00:24:54fell 0.5% in 2026, limiting immediate
00:24:57alternatives to substitute trapped or delayed
00:25:00shipments in the Red Sea. Tehran's refusal to
00:25:04accept a US-supervised ceasefire, coupled with the
00:25:08military response of the axis of resistance in Iraq and Yemen,
00:25:11confirm that the crisis in Western Asia has ceased to be a
00:25:14localized conflict to become a geopolitical
00:25:17fracture of global reach. The Anglo-American
00:25:20and Saudi strategy of subjugating the region through
00:25:23blockades, bombings and unilateral interventions
