Foreign Policy quotes Acting Director of the Rafik Hariri Center for the Middle East Danya Greenfield on President Obama’s recently announced counterterrorism plan for the Middle East, specifically as it relates to Yemen:
Danya Greenfield, a Yemen expert at the Atlantic Council, says that she would like to see U.S. efforts focus less on counterterrorism and especially on drone strikes, and more on citizen security. Nevertheless, she says, many Yemenis have been inspired by the success of their military.
