Sana'a (Debriefer) - Member of the Houthi Supreme Political Council on Sunday called on the United States to apply the 'Justice Against Sponsors of Terrorism Act' (JASTA) to Saudi Arabia.
"I advise Trump and Pompeo to make progress in applying the JASTA Act, if they are concerned with bringing right to civil victims," Mohamed Ali al-Houthi tweeted in his first comment to remarks previously released by the US Secretary of State.
Earlier, Mike Pompeo said Washington was still considering the designation of the Houthi group in the terrorism list.
But for the Houthi official the US current administration seeks, through this move, to "get money for fulfilling Saudi orders," and "America fights and actually terrifies the Yemeni people."
Under JASTA Act, relatives of 11/9 victims may go ahead with the legal actions they filed 10 years ago against Saudi Arabia on charge of funding a terrorist group.
After US officials said Washington might designate the Houthis as terrorist group in December or January, Riyadh hailed the US efforts as absolutely suitable.
