Abstract
Yemenâs role in shaping regional and global stability came to greater international attention beginning in February 2011. On the heels of the Arab Spring, Yemeni citizens protested against its president of thirty-three years, Ali Abdullah Saleh, and demanded he step down. Saleh announced he would transfer power to his vice president in November 2011. The success of the opposition has raised hopes for a government that is both more responsive to the needs of its people and a stable partner in international efforts to curb the illicit arms trade, terrorism, and piracy.
