The Yemeni National Salvation Government took the right position in rejecting the Persian Gulf Cooperation Council’s request for a Yemeni-Yemeni negotiation conference in the Saudi capital this March, as Sanaa is fully aware of Riyadh’s intentions and knows that Riyadh is trying to accept the consequences of the war and siege against the Yemeni people and their killing.
Faraan: Sana’a’s refusal to accept the Gulf Cooperation Council’s invitation was confirmed after media sources revealed that Saudi officials had expelled all Yemenis living in Saudi Arabia – teachers, students and staff – and warned them to leave Saudi Arabia altogether.
Interestingly, the news came at a time when security forces in Saudi Arabia were creating a racist hashtag entitled “Expulsion of Yemenis is a security and national demand,” which became a trend. Targeted repression of Yemenis living in Saudi Arabia is not unprecedented. In August 2021, Riyadh officials did not renew the employment contracts of Yemenis in southern Saudi Arabia, as well as the contracts of Yemeni professors and doctors working in hospitals and universities.
Another point is that this Saudi decision includes all Yemenis, which shows that the Saudi regime has not only the hatred of the Ansarullah movement, but also the hatred of the whole of Yemen and the Yemenis. Unfortunately, the policy of cutting off the livelihood of the Arab workers living in Saudi Arabia has become Riyadh’s strategy in its foreign policy relations, in order to put pressure on their respective governments. During the rule of Gamal Abdel Nasser, the Saudi regime ordered the expulsion of the Egyptians and Sudanese, yesterday it demanded the expulsion of the Syrians, Palestinians and Qataris, and today the expulsion of the Lebanese and Yemenis.
Riyadh’s hostile policy against the Yemenis is a testament to the claim that this regime has failed to bring the Yemeni people to their knees through military power, and that the fate of the one-day policy will never be better than the fate of the “military solution” in Yemen; Because the dignity of the Yemeni citizens cannot be destroyed by money and force.
