The response to the Red Sea crisis is lacking in decisiveness and strength
Former Supreme Allied Commander of NATO, Admiral Stavridis criticized the Western response to the Red Sea conflict as weak and defensive.

Stavridis suggests a strategic offensive plan to neutralize the threat posed by the Houthis and their backers in Iran.
