US withdrawal from Afghanistan indicates occupation forces’ failure in our region: Houthi

The leader of Yemen’s Ansarullah movement says the withdrawal of US troops from Afghanistan after 20 years of war clearly shows that occupation forces have failed to advance their plans and agendas in the West Asia region.

“Our (Yemeni) nation is making progress. The United States is in decline, and recent developments in Afghanistan attest to this fact. Americans depend on their agents and mercenaries while fighting proxy wars,” Abdul-Malik al-Houthi said during a televised speech broadcast live from the Yemeni capital Sana’a as he addressed ceremonies held to commemorate the martyrdom anniversary of Imam Hussein (PBUH), the third Shia Imam, on Thursday afternoon.

Elsewhere in his speech, the Ansarullah chief called on Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates to stop hatching plots and conspiracies against the Muslim world.

“We advise the Saudi and Emirati regimes besides their allies to cease plots against the Muslim world, as such a conduct would result in nothing other than failure and letdown,” Houthi highlighted.

He went on to say that the Yemeni nation strongly supports the Palestinian cause and Palestinians’ legitimate struggle to liberate their territories from the Israeli occupation.

“It is a virtue to help the Palestinian nation, support their resistance and expel Zionists [from the occupied territories]. It is, on the other hand, a vice to show loyalty to the United States and Israel,” the Ansarullah leader stressed.

Houthi added, “It is a virtue to stand on the side of oppressed people in Lebanon, Syria, Iraq, Bahrain and anywhere else in the world. It is righteous to strive for the unity and solidarity of Muslims. It is a vice to spread hatred and resentment among Muslims, and to try to provoke division among them.”

He noted that Yemeni people have every right to stand against the US-backed and Saudi-led aggression, which is “illegitimate and has led to the perpetuation of heinous and barbaric crimes.”

“It is righteous to strengthen our capabilities and defend our struggle against the enemies’ conspiracies. It is a virtue to confront enemies’ bids meant to humiliate our nation and the Muslim world. We will never capitulate and will not endure humiliation,” Houthi highlighted.
