Sana'a, NewsYemen, private:

 Saleh al-Hamdani, a farmer in the fifties, is looking forward to reflecting the outcomes of the Riyadh consultations announced on Thursday, April 7, 2022, on the reality of the collapsed public services of state institutions in Sanaa and the Houthi militia areas since the latter’s coup against state institutions in September 2014.

In an interview with NewsYemen, he pointed out that the newly created Presidential Leadership Council, which brought together various political forces that believe in the values of the republic, revolution, constitution and law, has a valuable opportunity to confine the Houthi militia to a critical angle, as it relates to the function of power towards the people, whether it is a consensual authority or a de facto authority 

The announcement of the outcomes of the Riyadh-Yemeni consultations, which included closing the page of President Abd Rabbuh Mansour Hadi and his deputy, Ali Mohsen al-Ahmar, aroused wide interest in the public street in Sanaa and its neighboring governorates, taking the priority of people’s conversations in public markets, mosques, qat councils and Ramadan evenings at the level of neighborhoods, districts and villages.

Walid Al-Wasabi, 35, a private sector employee, hopes that this will achieve a breakthrough in the crises of oil derivatives, and the provision of domestic gas at pre-2014 prices.  He told NewsYemen that people in Sana'a are looking forward to the return of the state with its sovereign symbols and government services, and before that its sense of people's suffering and their living needs.

Al-Wasabi hopes that the new development in the internationally recognized government system will achieve tangible progress in terms of economic reality, such as ending the currency division, constantly disbursing the salaries of state employees, and declining prices of basic foodstuffs and fuel and the value of electricity and water utility bills in all governorates of the Republic.

The outputs of the Riyadh consultations included the formation of an economic team that included 14 members to support government reforms and provide advice and advice to the government and the Central Bank regarding urgent reforms in the economic, development, financial and monetary fields, in addition to working to enhance efficiency, transparency and integrity in government agencies.

The political and civil activist, Naji Shaef, 35, believes that the outcomes of the Riyadh consultations represent an opportunity to stop the war and bring peace to Yemen. He praised the declared competencies of the Presidential Leadership Council in Article (7), which stipulated that the Presidential Leadership Council would negotiate with (Ansar Allah).  The Houthis have a permanent ceasefire throughout the republic and sit at the negotiating table to reach a final and comprehensive political solution that includes a transitional phase that will move Yemen from a state of war to a state of peace.

Urging the group in Sana'a (the Houthi militia) to seize the opportunity, make a few concessions and abandon excessive selfishness, noting that the Houthi militia's attempt to revive priestly projects are attempts to revive outdated projects.

Shaif advised the Houthi militia to stop ideologically ideological state institutions according to racist criteria, and to respond to peace initiatives and calls with similar steps that spare the blood of Yemenis and return Yemen to its natural Arab position away from Iranian tutelage, which deals with (Houthis) themselves with arrogance and arrogance as mere (Street Shiites) serving goals  And the ambitions of the Persian regime and its expansionist plans in the region and its destructive wars for the Arab countries.
