"United States is a great Country and has its effective role on the international arena, so we have to boost our relations with it, in order to achieve peace and stability in our region and the world"
About this Quote
The subtext is transactional. “Boost our relations” reads like an argument for access: security cooperation, aid, trade, diplomatic cover. By linking that boost directly to regional and global stability, Saleh borrows the moral language of peace to justify a pragmatic recalibration. It’s a familiar rhetorical shortcut in smaller or conflict-adjacent states: when you can’t control the chessboard, you court the player who can flip the table or stop it from being flipped.
Notice the careful vagueness. “Our region” is doing heavy lifting, inviting readers to supply the threats - war, insurgency, sanctions, economic fragility - without naming adversaries or domestic factions who might resist closer U.S. ties. That ambiguity keeps the statement usable across audiences: it reassures international listeners that the speaker is cooperative, while offering locals an outcome (“stability”) rather than an ideology.
As a writer’s line rather than a policy memo, it also signals aspiration: a bid to be seen as moderate, forward-looking, and plugged into the power networks that still shape headlines, borders, and ceasefires.
