خلاصة:
The Yemeni crisis has had significant effects and consequences on the regional and international policy and security. The frist regional impact is evident in different approaches of two main effective actors of the region namely Iran and Sausdi-arabia. Accordingly، the main question is that what affects the geopolitical identity behavioural pattern and security strategy and requirements of Iran and Saudi Arabia against the Yemeni crisis. The hypothesis is that Shiite، anti-arrogance، and revolutionary identity of Iran on one hand، and Sunni religious، Kingdom system، and wahhabism system and West advocacy of Saudi Arabia on the other hand، have been the most important factors affecting the development of geopolitical conflicts in the Middle East، especially in conflict and cold war between the two countries in Yemen. The results show that religious identity، among other factors، is the most influential factor in relations between Saudi Arabia and Iran in facing Yemen crisis. Saudi Arabia has been always concerned about the protests and uprisings of their Shiite minority in their country، especially after the crisis in Yemen. Hence، contrary to the security of identity-based of Iran and its participatory approach in solving regional conflicts، Saudi Arabia، with the support and involvement of extra-regional powers، especially America، has adopted an aggressive approach to their own security. The present study attempts to explain the issue more accurate by applying constructivism theory and testing research hypothsis in relation to the Yemen problems.

This is while the political system of Saudi Arabia is the most autocratic political system in the region, which severely violates human rights, democracy, and freedom of expression; for this reason, one of the countries in the region, such as the United Arab Emirates and Qatar, through financial and military support for Salafi terrorist groups such as ISIS, Jabhat al-Nusra, Ahrar al-Sham, and their counterparts, have sought to both keep revolutionary waves at bay by preoccupying their own citizens and the Muslims of the Arabian Peninsula with Shia-Sunni conflict, and on the other hand, to weaken Iran's allies by creating instability in Iraq, Syria, and Lebanon, thereby shifting the balance of power to the detriment of Iran and to the benefit of themselves and their allies.
