Yemen says US reversal of Houthi terror designation a free gift to Iran
[07/02/2021 06:44]

ADEN - SABA
Yemen said on Sunday the US intended reversal of the terror designation of Houthis as a terrorist organization is a free gift to Iran so that it escalates its activity in the region.

The country’s Information Minister Muammar al-Eryani said, “It is regrettable that they [the US] are talking about such intents while the Houthis’ Iranian missiles on Aden Airport are still fresh in the memory, missiles still land over the heads of civilians in Marib and Taiz, the projectiles and sniper shots still kill women and children ... and his [the Al-Houthi] drones still attack our neighboring countries.”

Al-Eryani criticized the use of the humanitarian concerns as an excuse to remove the Houthi terrorists from the US blacklist recalling that “international organizations and other parties pressured the government to stop the liberation of Hodeidah under citing concerns about the deterioration of humanitarian situations.”

He said the government “out of its commitment for peace” kept cooperating with those calls and participated in the Stockholm Agreement “which provided for the militia’s withdrawal from Hodeidah, the exchange of all prisoners and the lifting of the blockade on Taiz.”

Two years on, Eryani said, “nothing has materialized. The militia went ahead in attacking civilians, villages, houses and farms with shells, sniper shootings, landmines and IDEs …”

He said: “A similar move was repeated as the army once approached the capital Sana’a in Nehm and Serwah: The international community interfered to stop the army’s advance vowing to organize talks to reach a political solution and comprehensive and sustainable peace. But it became clear that the interference was a mere maneuver and a Houthi-Iranian ploy to gain time and regroup militants for a new escalation.”
