New shape of Yemen, would it be?

The crisis Yemenis face is a very tremendous change in history at all levels. Nobody can believe what happened? But believe it or not, this is Yemen, many people put it nowadays. The plea reached out, which is how the states image was reinstated and re-built as it was tarnished and destroyed following militia control to Sana’a and all the state institutions and bodies including defense ministry, Public headquarters of staff and military, Yemen National T.V as well as storming of many houses of key opposition figures.
“There is an internal and external conspiracy exceeded the country’s borders, there is also a lack of political will and our moral compass is missing,” Yemen’s President Abd Rabbuh Mansour Hadi said following the fall of Sana’a’. “However, Peace and National Partnership Agreement (PNPA) that was signed by all parties must be implemented, that new government must be formed as a result in order to implement the outcomes of National Dialogue Conference that was based on U.S and UN-backed, GCC-brokered agreement,” he added.
The Houthis did not stop their expansion in Sana’a, but they have taken over Hodeidah, which is the fourth-largest city in Yemen and overlooking the Red Sea. Then, Dhamar, Ibb and Taiz in attempt to take over all the north provinces of Yemen and what behind is the greatest, and may be the worst to Yemen for the first time in history. However, would it be the new shape of Yemen that brings democracy, freedom, social justice, peace and well-being to Yemenis who hope for this and have suffered for decades or would it be something else? This is what Yemenis await and the world as well.
Some analysts and observers argue this Peace and National Partnership Agreement is a symbolic one and the real one is all Yemen under the leadership of al- Houthis movement and their own ideology.
America and the international world condemned the move taken by al Houthis but not seriously and they did not declare frankly that this move would prejudice the outcomes of the National Dialogue Conference and maybe have put them under accountability.
There are no meaningful talks as militia take over the major cities and more dangerously have heavy weapons which have been taken from the state, some journalists argue.
What greater prejudice to the outcomes of a negotiated agreement (known as PNPA) could there be than the daily violations of human rights and Yemeni laws, which unlike moves in the UN envoy Jamal Bin Omar take immediate concrete steps, and for which Yemen pays no cost, but those who are now leading the country must take the responsibility of the whole country? Who does more to legitimise the state of Yemen, than the state of themselves? As the observers told Asian World. How long can this keep on without Yemen dying? It is by all appearances already dead. It will not take much before the coroner issues its death certificate, computer technicians also argue.
This is not a debate about the outcomes of National Dialogue Conferences. It is about the ability of Yemen or new leaders (Houthis) to fashion and limit the international debate; to ensure that the stability of Yemen, its democracy and sovereignty and to ensure that Yemenis enjoy peace, stability and prosperity.
In closing, negotiations on forming new government based on this Peace and National Partnership Agreement (PNPA) are still ongoing till writing this report. Yemenis’ long-waited sufferings, on the other hand, are still there. Although challenges and obstacles facing Yemen, people always hope for better and this is the most hoped-dream to be accomplished, life to be improved and government to be responsible for people demands and their security.
