UN draft proposal on Yemen crisis flawed: Ansarullah

The spokesman of Yemen's Ansarullah movement says a draft proposal put forth by the United Nations (UN) to end the crisis in the country is flawed.

Mohammed Abdulsalam said Monday that the UN proposal for a fresh round of negotiations between Yemeni groups only includes the mechanism ofthe talks and does not address the main crisis in the Arab country and the chief reasons behind it.

Earlier this month, the United Nations special envoy to Yemen Ismail Ould Cheikh Ahmed said that the talks between members of the Yemeni Ansarullah Houthi movement and the government of Yemens fugitive former President Abd Rabbuh Mansur Hadi would begin by mid-November. However, the negotiations have yet not been held.

The UN special envoy added that he was working with a team to reach an agreement on the date... and the subjects that will be discussed within the context of the UN Security Council Resolution 2216.

Abdulsalam said that the draft proposal does not include political solutions to end the conflict in Yemen. It also does not includethe issue of elections or the fight against DaeshTakfiriterrorists.

Furthermore, he said the UN draft proposal does not covera seven-point plan put forth by Ansarullah and Yemen's General People's Congress in the Omani capital, Muscat, in July.

Yemen has been witnessing airstrikes by Saudi Arabia since March 26, in line with Riyadh's alleged goal of undermining the Houthi movement and bringing Hadi back to power.

The Saudi aggression has claimed the lives of more than 7,100 people so far, while a total of nearly 14,000 people have also been injured.
