Saudi Arabia Rethinks Its Alliances — Is Israel Back in the Equation?

Saudi Arabia is reassessing its regional strategy as renewed fighting in Yemen, Houthi threats and shifting alliances expose the limits of its traditional partnerships.
In this edition of TV7 Editor’s Note, Jonathan Hessen is joined by Col. (Ret.) Dr. Eran Lerman, former Deputy National Security Advisor to Israel, to examine Riyadh’s relations with the United Arab Emirates, Turkey and Pakistan, the changing balance of power in Yemen, and the broader implications for Israel and the Abraham Accords.
The discussion also explores the strategic importance of Somaliland and the Horn of Africa, Chinese and Russian involvement in the region, and the mounting economic and political pressure facing the Islamic Republic of Iran.
