Oman sided with Yemen by declaring a no-fly zone over its territory for all military aircraft involved in operations against Yemen.The second question is the respect for the no-fly zone.t.me/zoka200
Uzbekistan supported the US against Al-Qaeda despite being Muslim and them,
So did Iran, Russia also helped the northern alliance and allowed NATO to use her airspace to attack the Taliban in the early years.
Chile supported the UK against Argentina despite neighbouring them
Shocking that Chilé under an American backed military dictatorship would support the U.K. over Argentina.
Spain supported the Nazis despite bordering France, the UK and Portugal
Well the U.K. and France sat on their collective asses while the Axis countries sent armour and their air forces to help fascists in Spain. The allies easily could have had an allied Spain but they were more concerned with short term political gains and appeasing fascists rather then outright confronting them, or at the very least arming them to a level sufficient to defend themselves. Sounds kinda familiar…
There’s lots of examples of neighbouring countries risking a lot to support their neighbours’ enemies
Well yes, the enemy of my enemy is my friend but that’s not a sufficient analysis of the postion Oman is in to explain why they did not allow open skies.
Oman hosts American troops, logistics hubs and aircraft. Oman is definitely not " aiding" Yemen as much as they are trying to keep the war out of their borders. If it benefited them in some drastic way to support the air war, they would. Its seems like a pretty high risk low reward scenario.
The Houthi’s aren’t going anywhere, and if anything will likely be better armed rather then poorer in the next few months and years.
