Aden (Debriefer) - If Yemen's war is to end, all coup projects against the legitimate authorities should be reversed and Arab coalition countries be persuaded to end the bloody scene in favor of legitimacy, a Yemeni MP said Sunday, among a set of factors.
Based on its own calculations and its members' goals and interests, the Saudi-led coalition has not shown real desire to bring about a decisive win in favor of the legitimate authority, the Yemeni ex-minister Najeeb Saeed Ghanim added.
The mutual interests of regional powers and local coup leaders, along with the international community's abandonment, have led Yemen to this impasse and made the 6-year war be forgotten, he said in an interview.
Yemen's prospect is now more tragic, particularly in the humanitarian aspect, as the "international and regional co-makers of this prospect are now more clearly disclosing their blatant intents and goals in prolonging this war."
While coup militias are still there in place with their arms, any attempt to end the war would only serve as a temporary truce postponing a new eruption of the war.
Asked about why the new government formation is delayed, MP Ghanim accused the Emirati-backed Southern Transitional Council (STC) of deferring the application of the Riyadh Agreement's military section that should take place prior to the cabinet formation.
It is nonsense to form a coalition cabinet in the presence of military and security forces that do not respond to the official authority, since no government can enforce its constitutional power in such environment.
