UN Resolution Turns Blind Eye on Al Saud’s Crimes

Thursday 16 April 2015
UN Resolution Turns Blind Eye on Al Saud’s Crimes

Alwaght-A UN resolution, with Persian Gulf Cooperation Council (PGCC) components, was issued yesterday. The Security Council adopted resolution 2216 (2015) in an attempt to save Saudi Arabia that has realized its air operations cannot fulfill its ambitions in Yemen. The resolution was issued when Saudis allies have snubbed Saudi Arabia's request to join its aggression against Yemen, while the Yemeni Army and Popular Committees are progressing throughout the country and are scoring more achievements.

The Persian Gulf countries that are participating in the air campaign against the Yemeni people took the lead in drafting the resolution. The resolution 2216 was passed with 14 votes, under chapter VII of the UN Charter.

The resolution stipulates a ban on deliveries of weapons to the Ansarullah Movement. Moreover, the document condemns unilaterally the actions of Ansarullah and envisions putting their leader Abdul Malik al-Houthi on Security Council sanctions lists.

Today, the War on Yemen marks its fourth week, under Saudi insistence to complete "objectives", confronted by an Iranian diplomatic mobility seeking to stop the Saudi aggression, through a peace plan of four points.

In this context, Iranian Foreign Ministry Spokeswoman Marzieh Afkham said on Monday that the Islamic Republic of Iran wants an end to any military operation against Yemen and urges the dispatch of humanitarian aid including medicine and food.

The Iranian plan is expected to be put forward to the United Nations, after the UN Security Council has adopted a resolution aimed at “Ansarullah Movement”, a resolution that gives “legitimate” cover for the war launched by the Saudi-led coalition.

During a visit to the Spanish capital, the Iranian foreign minister, Jawad Zarif, commented on the Yemeni situation and said, “This issue should be resolved by the Yemenis... Iran and Saudi Arabia need to talk but we cannot talk to determine the future of Yemen.”

Russia’s permanent representative to the global organization Vitaly Churkin , said that the document’s authors “refused to document demands Russia insisted upon to all sides of the conflict to cease fire and start peaceful dialogue.”

The Russian representative further added that the resolution “does not duly reflect serious consequences of the hostilities for the civilian population in Yemen and does not clearly enough formulate the task to establish compulsory and regular humanitarian pauses.”

Security Council diplomats doubted the effectiveness of the procedures that the resolution adopts. They said, quoting experts at the United Nations, that Yemen contains more than 40 million pieces of weapons of all calibers. They explained that Ansarullah Movement members are not known through their frequent travels and bank accounts abroad in order to be affected by these sanctions.

A member of the Political Bureau of “Ansarullah” Mohammed Bukhaiti described the Security Council resolution as “unjust” saying “We do not need arms from abroad and international decision will not affect us in this context.”

From Zionist massacres in Qana, Mansouri and southern suburb of Beirut, the massacres of Gaza to the massacre of Saudi Arabia against the Yemeni people all are similar images and scenes which can only met in criminality racial vindictive.

After the bloody massacre of Al-Saud in Al-Marzouq camp, the Directorate of Yarim, and the Hodeidah and others, there is no longer any difference between Saudi Arabia and its Zionist counterpart.

Spokesman of the Yemeni Armed Forces Brigadier honor Ghalib Luqman said that the Yemeni martyrs since the start of the Saudi brutal aggression on Yemen has reached 2571, including 381 children and 214 women, while the number of wounded has reached 3897 people, including 618 children and 455 women.
