Why doesn’t Sayyed al-Houthi pause for long over Trump’s decision to halt operations against Yemen?

SANAA, May 09 (YPA) – Many experts and observers noted that Sayyed Abdul-Malik al-Houthi’s speech on Thursday did not dwell much on the US announcement of a ceasefire, which US President Trump announced last Tuesday.

In this an analysis, the observers believed that Sayyed al-Houthi’s lack of attention to the US decision to halt the war on Yemen suggests that the event, for Yemen, appeared to be an inevitable outcome that the Americans were destined to reach sooner or later.

While some believed that the brief remarks made by leader al-Houthi regarding the agreement to cease attacks between Yemen and the United States were merely brief clarifications about the reality of the situation, in which he indicated that “the US announcement was not the result of supplication or surrender” and that what the US President said “was the buffoonery for which Trump is known.

Sayyed al-Houthi added that Yemen’s position has not diminished, declined, or weakened, despite its strength and integrity, noting that Yemen’s priorities have not changed in supporting the Palestinian people, regardless of the sacrifices.

The observers considered this to reveal confidence in Yemen’s capabilities beyond what the world had anticipated, especially the announcement of the ceasefire agreement between Yemen, US, and the world’s most formidable military force. However, Yemen treated the event as unworthy of boasting or exaggerated celebration.

They argued that Yemen has the steadfastness and capabilities sufficient to confront any similar escalation, given Sanaa’s insistence on supporting the Palestinian people whenever necessary, in contrast to Washington’s insistence on protecting and supporting the Israeli occupation, no matter what the situation requires. Meanwhile, Sayyed Abdul-Malik’s speech left the door open to the possibility of a new US escalation against Yemen, emphasizing his readiness to confront any future US escalation.
