The Yemeni National Salvation Government criticized the remarks of the US representative to the UN, saying the supporters of the Saudi coalition want peace for the aggressors.
The Yemeni National Salvation Government has made any ceasefire and peace in the war-torn country conditional on a halt to Saudi coalition attacks.
“We do not take any call for peace as long as it does not include the complete lifting of the siege of Yemen,” Mohammad Abdul Salam, Ansarullah’s spokesman and head of the government’s negotiating team, wrote on his Twitter account on Friday night.
“The truth is that we have not yet seen any seriousness in ending the attacks, and the invitations made by some international parties in this regard are a selective and optimistic interpretation of the kind of peace it seeks to bring to the aggressor and deprive Yemen of it. “Peace is either for everyone or not.”
Yesterday, the Secretary-General of the Arab League, Ahmed Abul Gheit, during a meeting with the Saudi Foreign Minister in Riyadh, blamed the Yemeni government for the crisis and called for a ceasefire with the Saudi coalition, saying that this was the only way to peace.
Abdul Salam seems to have reacted tonight to the remarks of the US representative to the United Nations. Speaking at a UN Security Council meeting on Yemen yesterday, Thomas Greenfield blamed Saudi Arabia for the situation, without mentioning or criticizing Saudi Arabia’s role in the Yemeni crisis, and said that the movement’s actions did not indicate that they were seeking an end to the conflict in Yemen.
Two months ago, at the end of the sixth year of the military invasion of Yemen, Saudi Arabia proposed an initiative that Riyadh claims seek peace in Yemen.
However, the Yemeni National Salvation Government, of which Ansarullah is a part, called the plan unrealistic and a repeat of the aggressors’ demands and called for an end to ground and airstrikes and the lifting of the six-year siege of Yemen as the first step towards a ceasefire.
