Ansarullah Rejects Saudi Request For Reconciliation Talks


Ansarullah Rejects Saudi Request for Reconciliation Talks
TEHRAN (FNA)- Yemen's Ansarullah Movement has rejected a Saudi proposal to hold talks for a political solution to the country's crisis, stressing that the negotiations will not happen as long as the monarchy continues its aggression against the Muslim country.
"Yemen will never sit at the negotiating table with Saudi Arabia until the illegal aistrikes are stopped," Ansarullah's Spokesman Mohammad Abdul Salam said on Monday.
"Any political issue on Yemen ought to be resolved through diplomatic process and agreement of all political parties," he added.  
Saudi Arabia has been striking Yemen for 19 days now to restore power to fugitive president Mansour Hadi, a close ally of Riyadh. The Saudi-led aggression has so far killed over 1,042 Yemenis, including hundreds of women and children. The attacks have also left more than 2,500 people injured.
Hadi stepped down in January and refused to reconsider the decision despite calls by Ansarullah revolutionaries of the Houthi movement.
Despite Riyadh's claims that it is bombing the positions of the Ansarullah fighters, Saudi warplanes are flattening residential areas and civilian infrastructures.
Five Persian Gulf States -- Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates (UAE), Bahrain, Qatar and Kuwait -- and Egypt that are also assisted by Israel and backed by the US declared war on Yemen in a joint statement issued on March 26.
