The Minister of Foreign Affairs Reveals the Falseness of the Allegations in the Saudi Letter to the Security Council

The Minister of Foreign Affairs, Mr. Hisham Sharaf, held the Security Council responsible for holding the Saudi government and its arms suppliers accountable in accordance with international law.

This came in a letter sent by the Minister of Foreign Affairs to the President of the Security Council for the month of December 2021 AD, Ambassador Abdo Abadi, and the members of the Council and the five permanent members to clarify and expose the falseness of the allegations contained in the Saudi letter to the Security Council on December 28.

Minister Sharaf urged the UN Security Council to assume its responsibilities in maintaining international peace and security, including the Arabian Peninsula and the Gulf region, and to take a number of basic steps that will pave the way for peace, foremost of which is stopping Saudi Arabia’s continuous threats and its daily indiscriminate bombing of civilian objects in Yemen, on allegations that they are “targets.” legitimate military,” as well as protecting the Yemeni people from the terrorism and crimes of the Riyadh government and its allies.

He explained that Riyadh tried to appear to the world as the victim to gain the sympathy of the international community and lament over the violation of international law, as if the international community and all international media and international organizations had no idea or knowledge that Riyadh is leading a military coalition that includes more than 17 countries, and is waging an absurd war and imposing a comprehensive siege on the Republic of Yemen since March 26, 2015, which led to the worst man-made humanitarian disaster in the modern era.

He explained that there are clear and well-known facts about the war on Yemen that cannot be hidden, pointing out that the Republic of Yemen was not accustomed to Saudi Arabia, but that Riyadh was the one which launched its barbaric military aggression and randomly bombed all Yemeni governorates, with the latest types of military fighters, missiles and ammunition, including in that, the internationally prohibited and Saudi-funded billions of dollars, as it imposed a comprehensive siege on the Yemeni people and closed and controlled all air, sea and land ports of the Republic of Yemen.

In the letter, the Foreign Minister said: “It is strange that the Security Council and the international community do not condemn the crimes committed by the Saudi state of aggression on an ongoing basis, but when Sanaa exercises its natural right guaranteed by international law, the Charter of the United Nations and all heavenly laws in self-defense and for the Yemeni people and responding to crimes against humanity. The Saudi war by targeting military sites and Saudi economic facilities that finance the war with a limited number of missiles that were developed internally, the world is agitated, condemns and condone what Riyadh and its air force are doing
