His Excellency President Dr. Rashad al-Alimi, Chairman of the Presidential Leadership Council (PLC) stated that any approach to put an end of the war in Yemen will never be successful, unless it deals with the Houthi militias as part of an Iranian cross-border scheme, and not as a local political party, warning that reducing any crisis of this kind to truces and arrangements for a ceasefire will lead to temporary risk management rather than building sustainable peace.

[05/02/2023 02:43]

Aden - Saba
Defense Minister Lieutenant General Muhsin Muhammad al-Daari discussed today in the interim capital Aden with a delegation from the Washington D.C.-based National Democratic Institute coordinating efforts and strengthening cooperation in combating terrorism and extremism.

The delegation was headed by Leslie Campbell the institute's Regional Director for Middle East and North Africa.

Minister of Defense praised what the Democratic Institute for the Development of Democracy in Yemen had previously presented, stressing the need for democratic countries to support the Yemenis in restoring the state and the republic and the return of the democratic system, noting that the terrorist Houthi militia claims the divine right to rule and wants to impose it on the people by force.

The Minister of Defense said, "We are waging a war against an enemy that threatens everyone, and you are the first to leave Yemen unwillingly because of the war imposed by the Houthi terrorist group with Iranian support and planning, cooperation and coordination with the terrorist organizations ISIS and al-Qaeda, not only to target Yemen and its stability, but also to threaten the region and the world, and that was clearly demonstrated by targeting global energy supplies and threatening international shipping lanes, which exposes global vital interests to imminent dangers, if this terrorist group is not deterred.
