Strengthening financial stability and fighting currency manipulation amid the Southern Transitional Council attempts to fail reform efforts
In the face of the escalating economic challenges in Yemen, Prime Minister Dr Ahmed Awad bin Mubarak has taken a series of important steps to strengthen the stability of the national economy and protect the local currency from further deterioration. It costs the Central Monitoring and Accounting Agency to review and examine the works of the General Secretariat of the Council of Ministers for recent provocation.
These efforts represent a comprehensive package of measures aimed at combating corruption, increasing transparency, regulating financial markets, improving the performance of government institutions, and reducing the impact of the economic crisis on citizens.
Except that these efforts face major challenges from internal parties seeking to impede these reforms, highlighted by the Southern Transitional Council, which continues its pitching moves to weaken the central government. These disruptions not only affect efforts to improve the economy, but also reflect deliberate attempts to disrupt the Prime Minister's efforts and thwart any improvement that shows his ability to fix the economic situation and manage crises successfully.
Under these circumstances, Dr. Rashad Al-Aleimi, Chairman of the Presidential Leadership Council, told the Prime Minister's full support is necessary to strengthen the central government in the face of obstacles. His full support will contribute to stabilizing stability, and enhance the government's ability to implement its reform plans efficiently and effectively, especially in the light of these critical circumstances. Unifying efforts at the highest levels reflects a vision of a unified national that transcends narrow interests, emphasizes the leadership's eagerness to protect the interest of the Yemeni people, strengthen the economy, and meet challenges.
Promoting transparency and accountability in governmental institutions.
The Prime Minister instructed the Central Monitoring and Accounting System to carry out a comprehensive review of the public secretariat work of the Council of Ministers. The decision comes amid the emergence of controversial issues related to government checks, unclear financial transactions, and the publication of official documents via social media. The Prime Minister emphasized the importance of addressing these issues with the aim of promoting transparency within institutions, addressing any glitches that may have occurred, and ensuring the proper management of public resources.
But the Southern Transitional Council seeks to thwart these efforts by provoking crises, disrupting trust between citizens and the central government, all to make the government look like a failure. This ongoing obstruction reflects an attempt to thwart the Prime Minister's efforts and undermine the performance of governmental institutions, which shows the Council's tendencies toward narrow-minded interests far from the people's interest.
Secondly fighting the conflict with currency and regulating the exchange market
In view of the sharp deterioration experienced by the Yemeni Real, the Prime Minister stressed the need to intensify efforts to fight against currency warrants and prevent unlicensed exchange, which contribute to the aggravating exchange rate crisis. He emphasized the importance of coordination between the security and justice authorities in the liberated governorates, for the purpose of monitoring the exchange shops, and to punish violators firmly in order to reduce illegal strikes.
The government, in cooperation with the public prosecutor, has closed a number of non-committed exchange shops in the temporary capital, Aden. These measures come as part of broader efforts aimed at regulating financial markets, stabilizing the national currency, and reducing financial pressure on citizens. But the Southern Transitional Council, through its control over certain regions, continues to double down on this national trend by imposing local challenges that prevent the effective implementation of government procedures, leading to the continued manipulation of exchange rates in favor of certain parties.
Thirdly, strengthening the central bank policies and supporting foreign currency reserves
The priority is to strengthen central bank policies aimed at controlling cash offers and pricing more efficiently, contributing to the relative stability of the currency. There is a trend to support foreign currency reserves through international support or aid of international stability funds.
But the Transitional Council seeks to thwart these efforts, amid the government's quest to polarize international support, it raises conflicts and unrest to disrupt the attainment of required stability; revealing the Council's continuing attempts to fail reform measures, and demonstrates its concern for peer interest at the expense of the public good.
Fourthly encouraging transfers through the official channels and activating the official economy
Transfer of money through official channels from Yemeni expatriates is an important source of foreign currency in the country. From here, the government seeks to encourage the transfer of money through official banks, by offering incentives that make this process more attractive and efficient. The stable cash flow from abroad would support cash reserves and enhance the central bank's ability to support Real.
However, the transitional council’s activities are delaying the achievement of these goals by creating an unstable environment that makes official financial transfers less attractive to expatriates, hindering the government’s attempts to polarize cash transfers that support financial stability.
Fifth: strengthening the productivity of the local economy and reducing dependence on imports
The Yemeni government is seeking to boost local production and reduce reliance on imports by supporting sectors like agriculture and small industries, which can reduce the demand for foreign currencies and mitigate the impact of global fluctuations. However, the transitional council seeks to thwart these efforts, by provoking conflicts that lead to disruption of local businesses and economic activities, hampering any progress that could contribute to improving the lives of citizens and exacerbating the economic crisis.
Launching sympathetic initiatives and development projects to boost confidence
One of the noteworthy proposals that might help close the social gap is to suspend or reduce the salaries of leaders and direct the funds towards a co-operative fund to support the most needed groups, a proposal that would strengthen social ties and ease the burden on the groups most affected by the economic crisis.
It is also proposed to launch a national initiative aimed at providing training and employment opportunities for unaffiliated youth, supporting development projects that benefit all, so that every citizen feels there is a positive impact behind the Council’s presence. Through these steps, the Council demonstrates a practical commitment to community issues, helping to restore popular confidence and reinforces the legitimacy of its presence and populace.
Promoting transparency and accountability is necessary that the government seeks to continue the audit and audit within government institutions to ensure sound management of public funds, which contributes to building the confidence of the people in institutions. Cooperation with the judiciary and security authorities to strengthen the coordination between the security and judiciary authorities to curb economic crimes and protect the national economy. Supporting decentralized governance enables local authorities in liberated areas to implement price control policies and market control in line with the national trend. The fight against corruption activates strict laws to fight corruption and develop accountability mechanisms within governmental institutions. Achieving the stability of the currency, and the government will focus on supporting the stability of the Yemeni riyal through central bank policies, increasing the cash reserve, and regulating the exchange market. Encourage Local Production: Encourage local production especially in agriculture and small industry sectors, to reduce dependence on imports and create local job opportunities. Attracting international support and investment, and the necessity of the government to attract international aid and investments that support the economy and provide the necessary resources to develop infrastructure and essential services. Achieving Food Security has developed food security strategies that support local production to reduce reliance on volatile global markets. Encouraging official economic transactions and developing incentives for the use of official banking channels in transfers and investments, which contributes to promoting financial inclusion and helps stabilize the currency.
The Yemeni government faces major challenges in the wake of the transitional council's efforts to hinder progress. Despite these obstacles, the determination of the government under the leadership of the Prime Minister remains clear to implement genuine reform steps aimed at improving the economic conditions, providing a generous life for citizens, reflecting the government's commitment to the issues of the people.
If the efforts of the Prime Minister are accepted with the full support of the Chairman of the Presidential Board, Dr. Rashad Al-Aleimi, it will enhance the effectiveness of the government in facing economic challenges and deter any attempts to disrupt the reform.

Between the illusion of real construction and the repetition of past mistakes, is the Southern Transitional Council heading towards the same fate?
While citizens face difficult economic situations, and many suffer from scarcity of resources, we see some parties spending people's money on fancy doors, fabricating media illusions, buying loyalties, buying people's silence instead of directing these resources towards what really benefits the society. The Southern Transitional Council repeats the mistakes of the past, in the same way as 1986, when some parties relied on buying loyalties rather than working to build a cohesive and stable society. This short-sighted politics may bring some temporary influence, but when money tightens and support slips, the conflict between the disputing parties begins and turns into a destructive conflict.
The way to building a real country is through service to the people and work with transparency, not through apparent illusions or attempts to temporary control loyalties. Funds should be directed to supporting projects that benefit the people, such as education, health and basic infrastructure, rather than being spent on fake luxuries and fronts.
History has taught us that buying influence with money doesn't last, and that building a stable nation requires genuine commitment to people's issues, not superficial strategies that serve temporary interests. We hope everyone realizes that hard work and sustainable development are the only way to build a better future for South Yemen, Yemen and for all.

Trump and American politics the return of the president and his influence on international politics amid geopolitical tensions
Today, I announced the victory of former President Donald Trump in the US elections, opening a new chapter of change in world politics. As international conflicts continue, such as the Russian-Ukraine war and the looming situation between Palestine and Israel, Trump returns to power with tough foreign policy commitments and positions, raising questions about the impact of this comeback on pressing issues internationally. So what are the reflections of his election on the global landscape, especially with tensions mounting, and how might hot files be affected? Let's address the accomplishments of Trump and Biden to illustrate the differences between the two administrations and the impact of each on the United States and the world.
Trump and Israeli security statements and concerns about the future of the Middle East
Trump has always been known for his strong stance on Israel, and his sensational statements about its security. In a recent statement, Trump voiced concerns for Israel’s future, warning of “disappearing within two years if Kamala Harris is elected.” The statements come amid his concern about the increasing challenges facing Israel from armed groups such as Hezbollah and the Houthis, in addition to Turkish President Erdogan's statements advocating for forming an Islamic alliance. For Trump supporters, they see him as a "protector" of US and Israeli interests in the region, especially in the midst of flaring situations. And they think Trump will put Israel on his agenda again, especially with regional tensions likely to escalate.
Attempted assassination and political polarization. History repeats itself?
Trump recently had an assassination attempt, which brings back to mind the incidents of political violence that have longed prominent leaders in American history, such as John F.K. There is a growing question about how stable American democracy is under this powerful polarization, especially with Trump's potential return. This event represents a tense point, raising concerns about the safety of leaders and reflecting the acute political divide America is experiencing, adding to the complexities of the internal political landscape and opening the door to questions about the future of democracy.
Trumps accomplishments in his first term as president
During his first term as president, Trump achieved numerous accomplishments that have left his mark on the American interior and the global landscape. And of these achievements are highlighted
The Abraham Accords These agreements were a historic step taken by Trump to normalize relations between Israel and a number of Arab countries, such as the UAE and Bahrain, strengthening the political and economic relations between the parties and bringing a transformation in Arab-Israeli relations.
The decision to move the US embassy to Jerusalem came as a bold move by Trump, sparking great controversy in the international community, but it strengthened his relationship with Israel and supported his position as a strong ally of Israel.
Stimulating the economy focused Trump's policies on lowering taxes and simplifying corporate laws, leading to increased job opportunities and Laft's economic growth ahead of the COVID-19
Politics towards Iran Trump withdrew from the Iranian nuclear agreement, and imposed strong economic sanctions on Tehran, in order to pressure it to limit its regional influence and develop its nuclear program.
The nexus with North Korea saw unique meetings with North Korean leader Kim Jong Un, which led to a reduced level of tensions, despite no final agreement being reached.
The accomplishments of Joe Biden
In return, Biden has presented a string of accomplishments focused on improving the internal situation and strengthening international alliances. His biggest achievements:
Crisis Management COVID-19 Biden has launched extensive campaigns to distribute vaccines, helping reduce the spread of the virus and support the U.S. economy recovery.
Restoring international relations worked to mend relations with America’s traditional allies in Europe and NATO, following a period of tension during the Trump administration, which contributed to strengthening America’s standing internationally.
The Inflation Reduction Act introduced legislation to boost investments in renewable energy and domestic industry, aiming to combat inflation and improve the economy.
Withdrawal from Afghanistan Despite controversy over how to withdraw, Biden has ended America’s longest war, providing huge resources and focusing on major issues such as challenges from China and Russia.
Supporting Ukraine in the wake of the Russian-Ukraine war, the Biden administration has provided significant support for Ukraine with aid and weapons, bolstering its resistance and raising international pressure on Russia.
How will Trump's election affect international hotfiles?
With Trump returning to the presidency, international policy is expected to see major changes in several pressing issues
Russia and Ukraine are known for his supportive stance to negotiate and resolve diplomatic conflicts, and may seek to cut military aid to Ukraine in exchange for pushing Europe to take on more defense burdens, aligning with the "America First" policy he is spellbound.
The Israeli Palestinian conflict may lead its strong support for Israel to escalate tensions, with a return of policies that bolster Israel’s regional stance. Trump may try to revive the previously proposed "economic peace" agreements, and may seek cooperation with Arab countries to calm.
Tensions with Iran are expected to adopt a tough policy towards Iran again, as he continues to impose sanctions and tries to undermine Iranian influence in the region.
Challenges in the Middle East and ally security may be the focus on strengthening alliances with Gulf countries and finding a balance of regional forces, adding pressure on Iran and boosting regional security.
International challenges - "America First" again
Trump is returning to the presidency with an "America First" slogan, which could mean redirecting resources inside the U.S. and reducing international obligations, which could lead to changes in foreign aid policy and may force other countries to reevaluate their attitudes.
With Trump's return to the presidency, the United States and the world are entering a new chapter of challenges and expectations. Will this era be a stage for balance and peace in international affairs, or a beginning of more global tensions? The question remains raised, and the coming months will determine the features of the near future.

What if the United States supported the independence of Somaliland and South Yemen?
Considering that both regions are relatively stable. However, this step represents a big change,
Somaliland was a British sanctuary Somaliland gained independence for a short time in 1960 before it unified with Italian-led Somalia. However, this alliance has faced many struggles, leading to civil wars and a genocide campaign under the rule of foreign rulers. Since the fall of the wild, Somaliland has been acting as an independent country, owning its own government, economy and security system that Ethiopia seeks to exploit for economic and military purposes. As well as the rest of Somalia, maintains relative stability and a democratic government, which gives it strategic advantages such as the Port of Berbera, which both China and Turkey seek to exploit for economic and military purposes.
South Yemen, South Yemen was an independent state with a socialist government before it unified with North Yemen in 1990. A reappearance during the Yemeni civil war in 2015.
Its strategic location near the Bab Mandab Strait, a vital marine corridor, gives southern Yemen great strategic value in an area where Iran, the Houthis, China and Russia's influence is increasing.
A precedent position of separatism supporting independent movements could encourage other separatism groups, creating serial reactions in vulnerable areas around the world. Russia and China are particularly interested in preserving the unity of their territories, as Russia has seen separatist clashes in Chechhen, Tatarstan and parts of eastern Ukraine, while China faces movements demanding independence or greater self-government in Tibet, Xinjiang and Hong Kong. If the U.S. recognizes Somaliland and southern Yemen, it may be seen as legitimizing these movements, adding to tensions with these global powers.
Diplomatic tension with Russia and China may take a tough stance on its regional sovereignty, especially with regard to Taiwan, Hong Kong and Xinjiang. Russia is also moving strongly to suppress separatist movements and defend its influence in Eastern Europe. With its support for the independence of Somaliland and southern Yemen, the U.S. may push Russia and China to retaliate by repressing their separatist movements or intensifying actions in regions like Ukraine and the South China Sea. A negative reaction from the mother countries could lead to the recognition of Somaliland and southern Yemen's independence to intensify US relations with Somalia and the recognized government in Yemen, further complicating US efforts to combat terrorism and diplomacy in the region. In Somalia, for example, US operations against the youth movement may become more complicated if the government views the United States as undermining its sovereignty. The cost of supporting new countries often requires considerable economic and security support to establish and sustain their independence. Both Somaliland and southern Yemen are likely to need American assistance to build infrastructure, defense capabilities, and international trade relations. This could be costly and require long-term commitments, which could exhaust American resources and affect public support.

Who is behind the killing of Saudi soldiers?
The incident of killing two Saudi soldiers by a Yemeni soldier at the Arab Alliance headquarters in Hadramout has raised concerns about the stability of the alliance and its grip in Yemen. This incident highlights multiple factors contributing to escalating tensions within the alliance, including differences in ideologies and conflict of interests between members, such as the transitional council and regional states. These complications exacerbate with the harsh conditions of soldiers, tribal tensions, and differences in loyalties and affiliations.
Potential factors contributing to tensions within the alliance
Difference of loyalties and ideological divisions
The Arab alliance includes Yemeni elements from diverse political and social backgrounds, sometimes leading to divisions in loyalty where some soldiers feel a stronger loyalty to their tribes or regions than the alliance. These differences can lead to severe tensions between domestic and foreign forces. And historical atrocities and local disappointments
Some Yemeni soldiers have suffered historic frustrations over foreign interventions, translating to resentment within the coalition ranks. Some may feel that the alliance is not meeting their needs or prioritizing their own interests, pushing some to take hostile attitudes. Also, the lack of communication and the lack of trust building leads to increased tensions and misunderstanding. With trust building weak, individual incidents become more likely, and may lead to an escalation of internal conflicts. Psychological stress caused by prolonged conflict leaves soldiers working in highly tense and stressful environments as a result of ongoing conflict, making them vulnerable to frustration and hostile behaviors in the absence of adequate psychological support. The competition of regional interests within Yemen is some of the tensions in Yemen in the competition of regional powers, such as Saudi Arabia and the UAE, where each supports different factions in line with its strategic interests. While Saudi Arabia supports the Yemeni government, the Emirates seeks to bolster its influence by supporting the Southern Transitional Council, which previously used mercenaries in murder and oppression, when interests clash. Economic and local factors in some areas of Yemeni suffer from high poverty levels and lack of resources, which is increasing local pressure on soldiers and pushing them to take harder attitudes. For example, some complain of discrepancies in salaries between domestic and foreign forces, which feeds feelings of injustice and inequality. And using mercenaries and foreign parties
Using some parties, such as the Southern Transitional Council, as a mercenary in operations targeting local rivals, is a factor that disrupts the stability of the alliance. Tribal tensions and local conflicts in Yemen, tribal divisions are an essential part of the social and political landscape, where tribal loyalties sometimes dominate national affiliations. This leads to escalating tensions within the joint forces, especially in areas that previously see competition for power and influence.
Lack of transparency and lack of clarity of goals
Some soldiers find it difficult to understand coalition goals that sometimes seem contradictory or unclear, which can lead to frustration and aggravated tensions. While the coalition focuses on reducing the Houthi influence, the transitional council seeks political gains in the South, creating an impression of no cohesion.
Support for the Yemeni government led by Dr. Rashad Al-Aleimi
In these complex circumstances, it is important to strengthen the support of the legitimate Yemeni government led by President Dr. Rashad Al-Aleimi, who is leading the country in the face of major challenges, including internal divisions and the ongoing conflict against the Sanaa government. The Yemeni government under his leadership represents hope in restoring Yemen unity and supporting its stability in the future. The Arab Alliance needs to support this legitimate leadership greater, to ensure the implementation of political and security reforms that can contribute to strengthening the internal front and enforcement of the rule of law throughout Yemen.
Dr. Rashad Al-Aleimi is a major figure in the Yemeni political arena, and he has made great efforts to achieve harmony between various parties within the government and between it and the Arab Alliance. Supporting the legitimate government by strengthening its role in the national dialogue, and applying comprehensive political transmission mechanisms, is an essential step towards improving coordination among various political forces in Yemen, including the Southern Transitional Council, and reducing internal tensions. Supporting the Yemeni leadership promotes stability in the liberated areas and contributes to building strong governmental institutions capable of facing political and military challenges.
Suggested solutions to relieve tensions and enhance cohesion
1. Making clear policies that prohibit the use of mercenaries
The Alliance must commit to banning mercenaries or engaging in illegal operations, and put in place monitoring mechanisms to ensure compliance with these policies.
2. Launching of joint training and awareness programs
The joint training, which focuses on mutual understanding and developing conflict coping skills, helps to strengthen cooperation between coalition forces and Yemeni forces.
3. Increasing psychological support and providing social services
Providing psychological support and social care services to soldiers helps relieve stress and tension, which improves their discipline and commitment.
4. Encouraging trust building initiatives with the local community
The Alliance can win the support of the local community by carrying out humanitarian and development projects, which contributes to building sustainable trust and helps reduce tensions.
The recent incident of killing Saudi soldiers reflects the need to review the Alliance's methods and evaluate its internal relations. By addressing the causes of internal conflicts and applying more transparent and just policies, the Alliance can build a more harmonious and effective environment in Yemen. The support of the Yemeni government, led by Dr. Rashad Al-Aleimi, is vital in achieving this goal, as his leadership constitutes a major focus towards rebuilding the Yemeni state and achieving stability in various regions.

Drowning in the sea of lies. How the Southern Transitional Council plants the seeds of chaos
Patt forced concealment of systematic suppressants used by the Southern Transitional Council to silence critical voices. These policies show a true reflection of the Council’s slogans in which it claimed to represent the people and achieve the interests of the South, where the aim is no longer to provide a generous life for the residents, but to deplete resources and deepen the chaos to achieve individual and group interests supported by external parties.
In the context of events, the recent tensions in Hadramout show the seriousness of the security situation and increasing irresponsible interventions. The tragic incident in the Alliance camp Basseoun, which claimed the lives of Saudi officers, highlights the escalation of conflicts within the country. Evidence points to a suspicious role of elements within the transitional council in sparking conflicts aimed at creating a state of chaos mercenaries previously used in murder and oppression, when interests clash. , to secure additional external support and extend their control in the south as their funding has begun to wane due to international pressures and regional changes.
The Transitional Council seems to be approaching a policy that goes beyond the boundaries of any national vision, engaging in movements that only serve its own tight interests by exploiting the Emirates' influence and engaging in agreements that are suspicious as normalcy with Israel, ignoring popular sentiments and in opposition to Yemen's long history in supporting the Arab central issues. These controversial moves have led to escalating popular outrage, and a gradual loss of confidence in the Council's ability to provide stability and security.
The Transitional Council’s insistence on irresponsible paths, including reliance on local militias and mercenary movements, exacerbates the suffering of Yemenis and hampers the central government’s efforts to achieve economic reform and fight corruption. So, it is imperative that the Yemeni leadership, with the support of the international community, impose practical stability that restores hope to the liberated areas, strengthens the authority of the legitimate government, prevents the misguided parties from destroying the country and achieving a tight personal relationship.
One of these soldiers is likely in one of the Southern Transitional Council bases, if searched there, they'll find him. He may be facing the same fate as former soldiers who were dumped by such as Colonel Señor, after forming a threat to policies or opposing the transitional council agendas. Formation of an investigation and research committee is necessary, but in the near future we will discover evidence that confirms their involvement in these suspicious actions.
Now, what is the Southern Transitional Council trying to achieve? Is it a deviation from the Yemeni government and the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia at a time when tensions are rising? Are these recent operations in Socotra related to a new political escalation? Or is he behind creating a new political representation in Aden? Are there any improvements in Ahmed bin Mubarak's show?
There's clearly something behind the scene. Perhaps these events are mere coincidences, or there is a court plan being prepared in disguise to change the existing situation.
In this context, the Yemen government, led by Dr. Rashad Al-Aleimi, should place the Southern Transitional Council under strict monitoring systems, and closely monitor their movements. These measures may be a necessary step to ensure that the Council does not make any suspicious moves that could threaten the security and stability of the country during this critical period.
