Sanaa takes initiative to end one of biggest crises in Yemen

SANAA, Jul. 25 (YPA) – Sanaa threw the ball into the court of the Saudi-led coalition, agreeing to solve one of the country’s biggest problems due to the coalition’s war on Yemen.

The Deputy Foreign Minister in the Sanaa government, Hussein Al-Ezzi, announced the acceptance of the challenge announced by member of the “Riyadh-formed Presidential Council” and “Governor of Marib” loyal to the coalition, Sultan Al-Aradah, to link the electricity from Marib gas-powered plant to the capital, Sanaa, during an interview with “BBC” last Saturday.

Al-Aradah boasted of defying what he described as the “Houthis” by accepting this offer.

Hussein Al-Ezzi said on his Twitter account, “I call on the Islah Party militia to speed up the reconnection of Marib plant to the capital, Sanaa, and to form a joint committee to actually start implementation.”

He continued, “We renew the warning to the German company Siemens, the manufacturer of the station’s units, not to approach (Marib Gas Power Station) without the approval of Sanaa and to guarantee the rights of citizens in all areas fed by the station.”

Al-Ezzi added in another tweet, “Since 2016, we have been demanding the reconnection of electricity from Marib plant to Sanaa, the last of which was our nine points in 2019 and the Islah Party leaders was refusing.”

It is worth noting that the leaders loyal to the coalition usually make statements that they do not have the authority to implement, since Riyadh and Abu Dhabi are the ones who control the decisions.
