description: This report provides an overview and analysis of U.S.-Yemeni
 relations, including issues such as: political change in Yemeni leadership;
 ongoing U.S. counterterrorism operations against Al Qaeda in the Arabian
 Peninsula (AQAP) operatives at large in Yemen's hinterlands; and international
 efforts to bolster the country's stability despite an array of daunting
 socio-economic problems. Congress and U.S. policymakers may be concerned with
 prospects for stabilizing Yemen and establishing strong bilateral relations
 with future Yemeni leaders.
