The revolutionary movement for the liberation and independence of southern Yemen rejected the Riyadh agreement and its implementation mechanism, in parallel with the renewed clashes between the Southern Transitional Council and the legitimate government, and the disclosure of documents showing Riyadh's position on the issue of southern secession.
Sources for the island revealed the renewed clashes between Yemeni government forces and Emirati-backed transitional council militants in the fighting areas of Abyan, in a new cease-fire violation.
In parallel, the Supreme Council for the Revolutionary Movement for the Liberation and Independence of South Yemen called for rejecting what it described as dictates, in reference to the Riyadh agreement and its executive mechanism between the legitimate government and the transitional council.
The council accused the Saudi-Emirati coalition of trying to impose agendas that contradict the Southern Cause project.
Saudi Arabia and the secession of the south
On the other hand, documents showed that Riyadh was dealing with the separation of southern Yemen as a basic option for resolving the issue of the south, and the documents also revealed that Saudi Arabia did not exclude the option of federalism as a possible solution in dealing with the problem of southern Yemen.
These documents indicate that Riyadh knows all the details of what is happening in southern Yemen, and has worked to abort attempts to unite the two parts of Yemen before they occurred in 1990.
According to the documents, Saudi Arabia stood against the unity of Yemen to support the separatists financially, militarily and medialy in the 1994 war.
