Top member in the Supreme Political Council, Mohammad Ali al-Houthi has commented on the new US sanctions on a number of people, including Yemenis whom Washington claims to be affiliated with Iran’s Revolutionary Guard and the Ansarullah movement.
Mohammed Ali al-Houthi said that the United States America is “putting the option of war as a priority in Yemen while claiming to want peace.”
“Imposing sanctions allegedly in favour of peace is in reality an obstacle to achieving peace,” al-Houthi added.

Mohammed Al-Houthi said he considered the US sanctions as a new crime targeting the private sector after targeting the central bank and stopping the export of oil, bombing factories and starving Yemenis by siege and cutting salaries.
“This is a systematic plan to eliminate the economy,” he affirmed .
