WASHINGTON: US President Donald Trump said Tuesday he would “take care of” the Houthis if the group follows through on its threatened blockade of Saudi ports.
“If something like that happens, we take care of it,” Trump told reporters during a White House meeting with Lebanese President Joseph Aoun. “You know, we’ve done that with the Houthis before, and we haven’t heard from them in a while since we did what we did originally.”
