WASHINGTON (Reuters) - The U.S. is not looking for a war with the Houthis, the White House said on Tuesday.
"We're not looking to expand this. The Houthis have a choice to make and they still have time to make the right choice, which is to stop these reckless attacks," White House spokesman John Kirby (NYSE:KEX) said.
Attacks by the Houthis on ships in the Red Sea have affected companies and alarmed major world powers. The Houthis say they are acting in solidarity with Palestinians.
