Al-Houthi proposes special agenda to Trump for benefit of America

SANAA, Oct. 12 (YPA) – The Supreme Political Council’s member Mohammed Ali al-Houthi proposed to US President Donald Trump and Secretary of Defense something like a special agenda serving the U.S. interests rather than sending thousands of American soldiers to the Middle East.

“It would be better for Trump, his administration, and his secretary of war, Esper, to send out plans for coexistence, equal citizenship and democracy, not war and destruction plans for their allies or free people,” said al-Houthi in a tweet at midnight on Friday.

These comments came after the US Pentagon issued a statement on Thursday announcing that the US military presence in the Middle East would be boosted by 3,000 troops, in addition to 14,000 others who exist in the region.

“We have decided to reinforce our forces in Saudi Arabia with aircraft, naval parts and 1,800 troops in the region, to increase the possibility of intervention if needed,” the US Secretary of War Mark Esper said on Thursday.

This move came after consulting with the US allies in the region to respond to Iran’s activities, according to Esper.
