Aden, NewsYemen, Exclusive:
The Yemeni Brotherhood, the Islah Party, rose again, on Saturday and Sunday, in the media regarding the Riyadh Agreement and the formation of the government, and on the ground under the pretext of demonstrations and military movements around the coalition camp in “Balhaf”, all in conjunction with assurances of new compromises that took place between Major General Aidaroos al-Zubaidi, head of the Southern Transitional Council and President Hadi about forming the new government.
The Brotherhood began to escalate in the media, on Saturday, the task of provoking the Southern Transitional Council, claiming their keenness on the south this time, and accusing the transitional that it had taken the price of the south as "ministerial bags" in the new government and that these portfolios were not important, despite the fact that the Riyadh Agreement is not a final solution to the crisis in the South and Yemen, where it is assumed that there will be a final solution under international sponsorship in the coming period, with the participation of the Southern Transitional as a party to the solution.
On the other hand, Mansour Saleh, the transitional leader, responded sarcastically to that media campaign, reminding the "Brotherhood" of their previous fabrications, when they said that legitimacy would not negotiate with rebels, then denied the existence of dialogue, and then threatened to enter Aden in two hours.
Salehsaid, whether the council had a portfolio or ten or the whole government, all of this is not important, the important thing is that the council has become the legitimacy and its victories in the south are proven by world recognition.
He continued: And the most important thing is that the invading forces of the south will leave empty under the agreement, and if they rebel, we will hit them with a stick of legitimacy, which is "us".
In parallel, Salem Thabet Al-Awlaqi, a leader in the transitional, said that the Brotherhood does not have one position in support of the Riyadh Agreement, but rather positions, roles and many papers, pointing out that this is the most prominent challenge facing the new government and the implementation of all the provisions of the Riyadh Agreement.
Al-Awlaqi expected that there would be an "escalation" from parties, which he said feel that the new government had exempted it, concluding: "The plowing in the sea will continue as long as the diagnosis is not accurate."
Indeed, it was only hours since Al-Awlaqi expected an escalation against the Riyadh agreement, until an escalation led by the Yemeni brothers began today, in Shabwa governorate.
On Sunday, the Brotherhood led a field escalation, as a delegation from Abyan arrived in Shabwa to lead protests against the Arab coalition forces in the governorate.
The Brotherhood is trying to lead these protests in the name of the Shabwa and Abyan tribes, as the delegation raised a slogan in which the name “Abyan tribes are in solidarity with the Shabwa tribes.”
In addition, Saleh al-Jabwani, the resigned Minister of Transport, who has opinions consistent with the Yemeni Brotherhood and who is accused of financing and forming a militia in Shabwa with Qatari support, has entered the circle of escalation.
Al-Jabwani appears, with statements opposing the Riyadh agreement with every progress in the agreement, and he was one of the most prominent opponents to it.
Al-Jabwani appealed to General Ali Mohsen Al-Ahmar, who said that he still hoped President Hadi and his deputy, Ali Mohsen Al-Ahmar, not to neglect the country's sovereignty.
He added: If it is true that the transitional will take over the ministries of transport and fisheries, then the UAE will get what it hopes legitimately and with the signature of the president.
