A senior member of Yemen’s Supreme Political Council says US President Joe Biden’s recent trip to West Asia was only meant to serve Israel at the cost of Arab and Muslim nations.
Faraan: Mohammed Ali al-Houthi made the remarks while addressing a massive ceremony in the Yemeni capital Sana’a to mark Eid al-Ghadir, an occasion when Shia Muslims celebrate the anniversary of the day Prophet Mohammad appointed Imam Ali, the first Shia Imam, as his successor and the leader of Muslims, Yemen’s al-Masirah television network reported on Sunday.
Houthi said Biden, like his predecessors and former US presidents, did not come to West Asia “to serve Islamic causes, but he came to serve Jews and Israel … [and] to spend Arabs’ and Muslims’ money to protect Israel.”
He also noted that the summit of the leaders of the United States and the Persian Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC), which was held in Saudi Arabia on Saturday, was not on behalf of Islam, just as it was not focused on humanitarian issues.
“The whole summit was for Israel. We condemn whatever comes out of this insignificant summit that was held only to serve the usurper,” he added. Houthi further warned “the usurping Zionist regime” that it will be defeated, stressing that the Yemeni people and the Arab nation are still alive, even if some Arab states normalize their ties with Israel.
“The usurper regime will not be able to gain power through compromising regimes, as it did not gain power through the normalization of ties with some Arab states in the past,” he said. Yemen’s top council: Foreign interference biggest impediment to peace in country. Biden arrived in the Israeli-occupied territories on Wednesday and met with the Israeli officials as well as Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas.
