Mr. Abdul Rahman Jalal Al-Subaihi, the Secretary-General of the General Secretariat of the Presidium...
The Office of the General Department of Foreign Affairs in the United States organized on Sunday, a seminar on the new US administration’s policy towards the Middle East in general, and Yemen, the South, and the Southern Transitional Council in the US politics and media in particular.
Mrs. Hadeel Owais, the writer and politician American of Syrian origin, who is specializing in American foreign policies and having several contributions to the press on the issue of the South, delivered a speech in which she explained that what the American presidential candidates say about the Middle East during their election campaign does not form the basis of their foreign policy when they reach the American administration and receive Intelligence information that they did not know before, in addition to the deep American institutions that draw the features of American foreign policy in line with American interests and guarantee American national security.
She pointed out that the change will not be essential in US foreign policy except through the moral and human rights policy adopted by the Democratic Party.
Regarding the war in Yemen, she indicated that the general trend by the Arab Coalition before the new American administration is towards stopping the war, and she expected that the new American administration will not deviate from the American general framework to support the Arab coalition, and with regard to the issue of the South and the Southern Transitional Council, she indicated that the issue of the South is a just one that includes the right of Southerners to determine their own destiny, which is a human right according to international humanitarian law.
Owais expected that the new US administration will adopt the human rights policy, so the Southerners should work through that.
Owais praised the Southern Transitional Council, which transferred the issue of the south from the local situation to the regional and international level, in which the southern issue has now a political, organized and institutional bearer, possesses military and security power and controls the land, and has regional and international recognition, so the new American administration will deal with the southern issue through the Southern Transitional Council, and the extent of dealings and relationship depends on the effort of the southerners at home through stability on the ground, and abroad by their diplomatic relations, and clarifying the southern issue to the American and international public opinion through media and other different diplomatic channels that reach out to the decision makers.
