PETERSBURG-SABA
The Deputy Speaker of Yemen's Parliament Mohammed Ashaddadi has asked the Middle East Committee of the Inter-Parliamentary Union (IPU) to urge the international community to press the Saleh-Houthi militias into implementing the UN resolutions esp. the UNSC resolution no. 2216.
During his participation in the IPU Middle East Committee's meeting held in Russia on Monday, Ashaddadi called for obliging the coup militias' into complying with the GCC Initiative and the outcomes of the National Dialogue Conference.
He gave the audience an overview on the chain of events following the radical militias' overthrow of the government and the eventual misery they plunged Yemen into.
He pointed out that upon the takeover of the capital Sana'a, the militias embezzled more than four billion dollars from the Central Bank of Yemen, put the elected President under house arrest, forcibly closed the parliament and started the devastating war on Yemeni cities and villages leaving a casualty toll in thousands, including women and children.
He cited the continuous shelling and besieging of Taiz for nearly three years as a case-in-point in the militias' atrocities.
