Prospects for Peace in Yemen
Channel: New America
Date: 2022-05-19

After years of inertia in the war, Yemen has seen significant shifts in politics and peace negotiations over the past several weeks. What do these latest developments, including a UN-negotiated Ramadan truce and the reshuffling of the government of Yemen, mean for prospects for peace in Yemen? How could Russia’s war in Ukraine affect the humanitarian and human rights situation in Yemen? And what should the United States and international community be doing right now to support peace?

Join New America’s New Models of Policy Change Initiative and International Security Program for a discussion with leading experts on the politics and humanitarian consequences of the war in Yemen.
