国际英语资讯:News Analysis: Trumps veto proves U.S. main role in prolonging Yemens war

He said that "the U.S. administration will continue to use the war in Yemen as a means of blackmailing the rich Gulf countries particularly Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates (UAE) and plundering their wealth."

According to Asharif, the ongoing civil war will not see an end in the near future because "Trump wants to achieve his goal and doesn't have a real desire to end the years-long war in Yemen, despite the destruction of Yemen's infrastructure and the killing of Yemeni civilians."

Asharif said that Trump's veto will lead to a continuing debate and "might cause some repercussions between the Congress and the American presidential administration that may leave a positive impact for the interest of Yemen."

On the other hand, some Yemeni observers said that Trump's veto will not have an impact on the ongoing fighting between the Yemeni government forces and the Houthi fighters.

Yaseen Al-Tamimi, a Yemeni political writer and analyst, told Xinhua that "Trump's veto will not have a direct and rapid impact on changing the events or the conflict that is going on in Yemen. It will unlikely affect the UN-sponsored peace process."

Al-Tamimi said that "Trump used the veto just to protect his country's huge interests gained through the relations with the UAE and Saudi Arabia. It is also linked to the arrangements of his overall management for the region."

He added that "it can be said that the shifting in the American administration's attitude toward Iran and the Houthis has nothing to do with the priorities of the Yemeni people, who are keen to defeat the coup and restore their state."
