Sana’a Reaffirms its Readiness for Just Peace Amidst Continued Aggression

Sana’a, the capital of Yemen, renewed its commitment to a just peace on Sunday, provided there is seriousness from the United States, Saudi Arabia, and the United Arab Emirates, the nations leading the aggression. Brigadier General Hassan Al-Dhaif, the Deputy Head of the National Military Committee, stated that the committee has a complete vision for initiating and solidifying a ceasefire. However, this is contingent on the enemy’s practical response to the demands and entitlements of the Yemeni people.

The Deputy Head of the National Military Committee made this announcement during a meeting with the military advisor to the United Nations representative in Yemen, General Anthony Hayward. During the meeting, they reviewed the latest field developments and breaches witnessed by the internal and external fronts, as per the official news agency “Saba”.

Al-Dhaif stated during the meeting that the committee is ready and has full visions for a ceasefire process and its stabilization, provided the aggression coalition proves its seriousness by taking practical steps towards ending the blockade and alleviating the humanitarian suffering of the Yemeni people.

Brigadier General Al-Dhaif emphasized that “time is passing and is not in favor of everyone,” indicating that the aggressive nations are obliged to prove their seriousness about peace by taking tangible steps in the humanitarian side and lifting the blockade that the Yemeni people suffer from.

He added that “the Revolutionary Leadership, the Supreme Political Council, and the Supreme Military Leadership have proven to everyone their orientation towards a just peace,” noting that “progress in solving the humanitarian file by disbursing salaries from oil and gas revenues and opening airports and ports without restrictions will contribute to progress in the military file.”

The countries of the aggression and their sponsors are trying to link the legitimate humanitarian entitlements of the Yemeni people with aggressive preconditions; a blatant attempt to blackmail Sana’a into accepting impositions that achieve the objectives that the enemy failed to achieve by force over the past years.

President Al-Mashat had previously confirmed that the countries of the aggression and their sponsors refuse to address the humanitarian file and allocate the proceeds of national wealth to pay the salaries of employees in all provinces.

The “Saba” agency explained that the meeting included “a review of some of the hostile acts committed by the countries of the aggression and their mercenaries, which are contrary to human rights and international humanitarian law, including the thrusting of Yemeni expatriates and African immigrants into the front lines and using them for inhumane and unlawful war purposes.”

Elsewhere, the agency reported: “The military advisor to the UN representative also met with the Deputy Foreign Minister of the Salvation Government, Hussein Al-Ezzi, who confirmed the Revolutionary Leadership and the Supreme Political Council’s keenness to move towards peace that achieves security and stability for Yemen and the region.” He also confirmed “the support of the National Military Committee and overcoming obstacles before it; to accomplish its tasks if the other parties showed their seriousness for peace represented primarily by the humanitarian file.”

Political sources confirmed this week that negotiations and talks are ongoing with the countries of the aggression, despite some stumbling blocks in aspects of the humanitarian file, where Sana’a continues to support the efforts of mediators to reach permanent solutions that include the payment of salaries and alleviating the suffering of the Yemeni people due to the criminal siege imposed by the countries of the aggression on the country.

Sana’a insists on the need to lift the criminal restrictions imposed on ports and airports, and to allocate oil and gas revenues to pay employee salaries and improve the service situation in all provinces, and to solve the prisoners’ file, as basic and necessary steps towards advancing a comprehensive peace process that includes determinants to end aggression, siege, occupation and fully compensate for damages. However, the countries of the aggression and their sponsors are trying to circumvent this, pushing towards a continuation of neither war nor peace situation, to prolong the suffering of the Yemeni people.
