Press TV has conducted an interview with Ali al-Ahmed, director of the IGA from Washington, to discuss the Saudi crackdown on dissent in Eastern Province.

 

Ahmed believes the Saudi monarchy is “extremely nervous,” because its aggression against Yemen is not going well, adding that Riyadh is trying to create “distraction” for its forces inside the country by sending them to Eastern Province to crack down on dissent.

He also says there is a lot of internal pressure inside Saudi Arabia and the ruling family is facing one of its major crises in its history.

Ahmed further maintains that the United States is just taking advantage from the nervous Al Saud monarchy, which is seeing the rapid decline of its regional support and hegemony on account of the popular demands by neighboring countries.
