AhlulBayt News Agency (ABNA): “As usual, the British ambassador tends to utter remarks and put out statements about the independent Republic of Yemen, not knowing the fact that the mercenaries and traitors whom he meets do not represent the nation. They solely think of money and are ready to sell the country and compromise its interests,” Mohammed Abdul-Salam said in a statement on Thursday.
He added that the Yemeni nation does not accept to be under the auspices of any party and firmly rejects interference in Yemen’s internal affairs, stressing that Aron’s latest remarks clearly indicate the failure of the Saudi-led aggression and the siege against Yemen.
“Whenever the pawns fail to achieve their goals, the chief architects of the aggression [against Yemen] intervene to disseminate their ideologies, cause commotion and express their dissatisfaction that the United Nations is not run according to their wills and ambitions,” Abdul-Salam pointed out.
“The world public opinion knows that the aggression and siege on Yemen are parts of a US-British scenario being played out by the vassal regimes of Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates,” he highlighted.
Abdul-Salam then criticized the United Nations for praising officials affiliated to the administration of former Yemeni president Abd Rabbuh Mansur Hadi, blaming them for the persistence of the Yemen conflict, and failure to lift the Saudi-led blockade and to work out a comprehensive and just political solution to the crisis.
“We strongly call for a complete ceasefire and an immediate cessation of all military and reconnaissance operations. We also demand an end to the siege, and expect the political process to take its natural course without any threats or pressure,” the senior Yemeni official said.
Aron tweeted on Tuesday that he had spoken to pro-Hadi Ma'rib Governor Sultan al-Aradh, blaming Ansarullah fighters for the uptick in military activities in Ma’rib province.
He also urged the Ansaruallah to take the role of UN Special Envoy for Yemen Martin Griffiths seriously.
