Houthi official blesses holding Islamic Summit in Malaysia

AhlulBayt News Agency (ABNA): Member of the Yemeni Supreme Political Council Mohammad Ali Al-Houthi stressed the importance of holding the Kuala Lumpur Summit at this time to take an Islamic position on various issues.

“We bless Malaysian Prime Minister Mahathir Mohamad's call for a summit at this time, especially as there are issues that need an Islamic position, such as the aggression against Yemen, the deal of the century, and the weak Muslims throughout the world,” Al-Houthi said in a tweet.

He expressed his hope that the summit will produce positive results and follow-up to implementation, “We hope to see the Kuala Lumpur Summit usher in a new phase of dialogue and joint action."

Al-Houthi considered that any Arab ruler attending the Kuala Lumpur Summit represents his country, and represents the Republic of Yemen on behalf, as it is on an unjust blockade forced by US-Saudi-UAE aggression and its allies.

Malaysia’s prime minister, Mahathir Mohamad, announced that his country will stage an Islamic summit in Kuala Lumpur from Dec. 19-21. The event, on the theme of “The Role of Development in Achieving National Security,” will feature representatives from the host country as well as Indonesia, Pakistan, Qatar, and Turkey.

Around 450 leaders, scholars, clerics, and thinkers from 52 countries will attend, along with Iranian President Hasan Rouhani Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan, Qatari Emir Sheikh Tamim bin Hamad al-Thani, Indonesian President Joko Widodo, and Pakistani Prime Minister Imran Khan.
