Saudis Not Seeking Political Solution to Yemeni Crisis: Ansarullah
TEHRAN (Tasnim) – A senior official of Yemen’s Houthi Ansarullah movement censured the Saudi regime for its continued aggression against the Arabian Peninsula country, saying that Riyadh does not want the Yemeni crisis to be resolved politically.
“We should emphasize that Saudi Arabia is not after a political solution,” Ahmad Hamed said in interview with the Tasnim News Agency.
“This country, provoked by the US, has made reaching a political solution (to the Yemeni conflicts) difficult, because it does not brook Yemen’s security and independence,” he added.
Pointing to the future of talks among the warring parties, he said that the Saudi regime will not allow them to yield results it did not as in the past.
Yemen’s defenseless people have been under massive attacks by a coalition led by the Saudi regime for months.
On March 26, Saudi Arabia and some of its Arab allies, including the UAE, began to launch deadly airstrikes against the Houthi Ansarullah movement in an attempt to restore power to the fugitive former President Abd Rabbuh Mansour Hadi, a close ally of Riyadh.
According to Yemeni health ministry, the death toll from the Saudi-led war so far has reached more than 6,000 people, including 1,277 children and 1,041 women.
