Abdul Karim Salem Al-Saadi, a member of the leadership of the “Peaceful Southern Movement” and head of the “Southern Civil Forces Gathering,” stated that all indicators confirm that what awaits the south is “more conflicts and disagreements as a natural result of Riyadh’s ill-considered consultations.”
He added, in his interview with the Russian “Sputnik” agency, today, Thursday, that “the agreements imposed by the Riyadh consultations, which led to the so-called Presidential Leadership Council, were an ill-considered step that focused on the ongoing settlement between Saudi Arabia and the Ansar Allah group and neglected the rest of the issues.” Taking advantage of the internal conflicts, the weak attendance on these issues, and their surrender to dictates at the time.”
As for the unity of southerners over their great cause, Al-Saadi says: “This too is managed until now by the mentality of conflict, and calls for south-south dialogue have failed as a result of their lack of the most basic components and standards of real dialogue. In my belief, the biggest obstacle facing the southern cause today is the obstacle of a loud voice.” For unreasonable southerners and their leadership on the scene.”
Al-Saadi added, “The voices of the unreasonable invoked the causes of the southern conflicts of the past, contributed to tearing apart the southern political and social fabric, obstructed and will obstruct the progress of the southern issue, and may destroy it if things continue in the same current situation created by regional conflicts and the repercussions of previous southern conflicts, and pour oil on it.” Regional interventions that see achieving the southern goal as threats to their interests.”
The southern leader pointed out that when the language of true and equal dialogue that guarantees the right to partnership is absent, the alternative is certain to be nothing but conflict and rivalry, and the pages of recent southern history are stained with the blood of that alternative that the conflicting elites have continued to impose on the people in the south.
Al-Saadi stressed that what is happening today on the scene is the beginnings of a conflict, whether the conflict of the southern elites with the northern elites, or the conflict of the Yemeni national elites with the tools and groups of the parties of the region that they established, trained, and made of them the guardian of their interests in Yemen, north and south, at the expense of the interests of Yemen. And its children, or the conflict of regional directives, desires and interests with national directives and goals, or the south-south conflict that the transitional group has brought back to the forefront, in a more uglier face than its predecessor, all of these preliminaries will lead to conflicts and will not lead to consensus because conflict usually only brings More conflict.
