Counselor Khaled Al-Hosni, member of the Council of Advisors and the Foreign Relations Committee of the Southern Transitional Council, confirmed that “the South has a legitimate cause, guaranteed by international laws and conventions”

This came during a live interview conducted by the independent Aden Channel yesterday, Wednesday, with Al-Hosni, during which the challenges facing the south were highlighted.

Noting that the economic situation in the capital, Aden, is getting worse, as "the poverty rate is increasing dramatically." He considered the current government “just a business management company,” and expressed his lack of confidence in the international community, which he considered responsible for supporting the legitimacy that contributed to the existence of the Houthi militias.

Al-Hosni also pointed out that the alleged legitimacy ended in 2015, calling for a correct assessment of the current situation. He stated, "We do not have a head of state or a government that serves the people properly, and all state institutions are dysfunctional."

Al-Hosni confirmed that many members of the Presidential Leadership Council are no more than employees, stressing that the Southern Transitional Council presented many initiatives and reforms through its ministers, but they did not receive any response.

With regard to the security aspect, Al-Hosni praised the reforms carried out by Commander Abu Zaraa Al-Muharami, under the guidance of Commander Aidaroos Qasim Al-Zubaidi. He stressed that the Transitional Council has proven its sincerity and good faith in the peace process, noting that it is "a difficult number that will be difficult to overcome in any upcoming political process."

At the conclusion of his speech, Al-Hosni called on the international community to realize that the South possesses distinctive wealth and geographical location, which requires a real reconsideration in dealing with the issues of the South.
