U.S. President Donald Trump addressed the escalation in fighting between the Houthi rebels in Yemen and Saudi Arabia, claiming that "the Houthis are behaving very badly. I thought they learned their lesson a year ago when we bombed them hard and at their request we stopped." According to him, "They were quiet for a long time, but now they have surfaced again, apparently at Iran's direction – which is a failed state, without a navy, without an air force – in a very unpleasant way, attacking Saudi Arabia, and deliberately trying to cause oil prices to rise, probably before the U.S. elections – not nice. I will be there after the election, and I will never forget!"
