Dr. Ahmed Obaid Bin Daghr: Don’t Miss the Historic Opportunity for Peace and Dialogue in Yemen

In a sharply worded article filled with warnings, Dr. Ahmed Obaid Bin Daghr called for seizing the historic opportunity to establish peace in Yemen and stop the bloodshed. He stressed the importance of returning to the negotiation table to avoid further destruction and suffering.

Dr. Bin Daghr strongly criticized policies that have destroyed Yemen’s infrastructure and exacerbated the suffering of its people, noting that these policies serve only narrow interests unrelated to the Palestinian cause, which some claim to support. Addressing the Houthi group, he said: “Palestine is undeniably an Arab cause, but your policies have only contributed to the killing of Yemenis and the destruction of their country.”

Bin Daghr emphasized that Yemen is currently facing a real chance to end the conflict and begin rebuilding, urging all parties not to squander this historic moment. He added: “We, and you, have a good opportunity to stop the bloodshed and return to dialogue. Do not waste it.”

In a direct message to the Houthis, Bin Daghr warned that the Yemeni people, who had previously ousted the Imams from Sana’a, are capable of expelling them as well. He said: “The people, upon whom you have imposed your bloody authority, are advancing today, raising the banner of change, correction, and the restoration of the state.”

Dr. Bin Daghr concluded his article with a clear message: “If you refuse reconciliation, we will fight you. This people will accept no authority other than its free will, which can only be expressed through ballot boxes. Do not waste the opportunity for peace, and let us work together to heal the wounds of this nation and rebuild a homeland torn apart by wars and aggressive policies.”

The article serves as a serious call for all parties to halt the destruction and work towards achieving fair and comprehensive peace, emphasizing the importance of the Yemeni people’s will in determining their future and reclaiming their state.
