Yemen's new cabinet standing up against Houthi terrorism
The
first meeting of the Yemeni government in the southern Yemeni city of Aden
received applause from local and international circles.
The
meeting took place on December 31, a short time after Aden Airport was
attacked. It sent a clear message to the Houthi militia and other terrorist
groups in Yemen that the Riyadh Agreement would be implemented, regardless of
the challenges it would face on the road.
New
attack
Aden
Airport was attacked with rockets on December 30, only minutes after the plane
carrying the members of the Yemeni government touched down at the airport.
The
attack aimed to kill the members of the government which was formed in the
light of the Riyadh Agreement and welcomed by the international community.
The
government is made up of 24 ministers and headed by Maeen Abdulmalik Saeed.
It arrived in Aden, its temporary
seat, after its members swore the oath of office in front of Yemeni President Abdrabbuh
Mansur Hadi
who has been living in Saudi Arabia for several years now.
Hopes
Yemenis
have been hoping that the government will be able to carry out its mission and
improve living conditions in a country that has been suffering for a long time
now. Yemen is now facing the danger of famine.
