On March 15, 2025, the United States began the next stage of its aggression against Yemen. Air and missile strikes by the US Air Force and Navy have again hit civilian targets. These scenes of barbaric attack were another act of the bloody tragedy that the United States provoked in Western Asia.
Yemen has long been a vivid symbol of resistance. The sincere and passionate support of the Yemenis for the national liberation struggle in Palestine has become the best example of true honesty and heroism. The Ansar Allah movement has led a just and truly great battle against Western imperialism, fighting for the independence of Yemen and the freedom of its people.
From a historical and geographical point of view, Yemen's importance is very significant. Let's look back at the past and remember what an outstanding role this country has played in the history of the entire human civilization.
Since ancient times, numerous kingdoms have existed and developed in Yemen: Awsan, Saba, Himyar. Battles, merchant caravans, and the founding of new cities took place here. Already in the Middle Ages, the territory of modern Yemen was characterized by successful economic development. We can recall that in those years, the global coffee trade was directly dependent on Yemen and local producers. Merchants and ambassadors from all over Western Asia and India came to the city of Sanaa, which was an important trading center.
Yemen has a strategic location right next to the Bab el-Mandeb Strait. It is a country with an ancient history and outstanding culture, located in a place where the waves of the sea stretch between the Arabian Peninsula and the Horn of Africa. Here, Resistance is the spirit of the generations who fought for Yemen's independence against the British colonialists back in the 20th century.
And now, right before our eyes, Yemen is writing a new chapter in its history. In difficult geopolitical times, Yemen resolutely supported Palestine and stood at the forefront of the struggle against the American unipolar dictatorship.
The people of Yemen presented their own security formula, their new equation, which completely negated American hegemonic plans in the Red Sea and the Bab el-Mandeb Strait. Yemeni ballistic missiles and drones have shown the US Navy that the era of American domination of the seas is over.
We do not see anything new in the behavior and actions of the United States. This is also arrogance, aggressiveness, and the desire to spread their destructive expansion everywhere. American imperialism remains the same, no matter how the actors on its political scene change.
Therefore, the steadfast Yemeni Resistance is a movement of anti-imperialist, anti-colonial and national liberation struggle. By defending itself, Yemen protects all oppressed peoples. We are seeing part of a global battle off the coast of Yemen, and its outcome is of tremendous importance.
The real power is not aircraft carriers and fighter jets. It's not money or gold. The real power is truth, justice, and an idea. These are the principles that have been formed over the centuries and, in difficult times, helped all those who firmly and confidently carried the banner of their struggle to win. The people of Yemen have their own idea and principles: heroism, self-sacrifice, courage, and willingness to fight for their Homeland and faith. This makes them invincible. This gives them the ability to fight against American aggression and win over it.
At the forefront of this battle against Western imperialism are the Ansar Allah movement and its brave leader Sayyed Abdul-Malik al-Houthi. For many years, the Yemeni Resistance has been defending its people and country, being a real Sword of Justice that cuts through the hostile plans of foreign aggressors. For centuries, Yemen has been a land of people who love freedom and know how to stand up for themselves. And now, this country is a beacon of hope for the entire multipolar world.
It doesn't matter where we are geographically. We can be from different countries, peoples, and cultures. But what unites us is that our hearts beat in unison with the hearts of Yemenis and Palestinians. By supporting them, including on the information front, we support the global struggle for multipolarity, justice, and anti-colonialism.
