The United States offered to recognize the Yemeni Ansar Allah movement's legitimate authority over the entire country of Yemen if they cease their attacks in support of Palestinians in Gaza, Hezam al-Asad a member of Ansar Allah's political bureau told Sputnik, adding that the movement refused the offer.

"Since the Yemeni leadership in Sanaa announced its participation in supporting our people in the Gaza Strip, the US administration has been carrying out political, military and economic blackmail against the government of Sanaa, trying to use intimidation to dissuade the Yemeni people from this path," al-Asad said.

Al-Asad emphasized that Ansar Allah refused this offer, denouncing US intervention in Yemen's national and political affairs.

"The United States also has no right to put pressure on us to stop supporting the Palestinian people in the Gaza Strip, who are being subjected to genocide by the Israeli occupying forces with US and Western support and participation," he added.

Overstretched US military avoids escalation 

The US has largely averted escalation in Yemen, due to "military overstretch", which means that it can no longer offer the military assets needed to project its power onto its foes, foreign affairs expert Hal Brands wrote for Bloomberg.

"The core issue is that Washington has hesitated to take stronger measures... for fear of inflaming a tense regional situation."

The Bloomberg report explained that Yemen and its allies are keeping "the showdown simmering at their preferred temperature," because the US has avoided taking stronger measures. 

Moreover, the events show the "fatigue" of the US military, which lacks enough armament and military systems to engage in a larger campaign that does not compromise it elsewhere. 

The issue of the Red Sea and Ansar Allah's growing strength will be an issue for whoever is elected president of the United States later this year, the report concluded. 

"Whoever becomes president in 2025 will have to face the fact that America is losing the struggle for the Red Sea, with all the pernicious global implications that may follow."
