Saudi Arabia demands Yemen to pay 800 billion dollars in ''compensation''
2022-05-06
[HODHODYEMENNEWS] Media sources have revealed that Soddy Arabia
...a kingdom taking up the bulk of the Arabian peninsula. Its primary economic activity involves exporting oil and soaking Islamic rubes on the annual hajj pilgrimage. The country supports a large number of princes in whatcha might call princely splendor. When the oil runs out the rest of the world is going to kick sand in the Soddy national face...
has demanded that the so-called Presidential Council, which was formed in April after the ousting of puppet president Abdrabbuh Hadi and is currently headed by Rashad al-Alimi, pays for Riyadh’s losses in its war on Yemen
...an area of the Arabian Peninsula sometimes mistaken for a country. It is populated by more antagonistic tribes and factions than you can keep track of...
, for a sum which reportedly amounts to $800 billion.

The sources confirmed that there was an old deal between Saudi Arabia and Hadi in which he signed a monthly commitment to pay back Saudi losses suffered in the war against Yemen.

"Saudi Arabia wants the al-Alimi Council to approve a debt of $800 billion owed by Yemen. According an official in the coalition-backed government, Hadi’s debt as of the end of 2021 amounted to $256 billion," said Anes Mansour, a consultant at the Yemeni embassy in Riyadh.

Mansour added in another tweet, that "during the 7 years of war, Yemen’s income from oil and gas went to the Saudi National Bank, and recently Rashad al-Alimi asked Saudi Arabia kindly to supply Yemeni income to the Central Bank of Yemen in Aden so that the government can meet its obligations, but Saudi Arabia refused!"

According to the coalition-backed government source, Saudi Arabia forced Hadi to grant investment contracts for Yemeni oil fields, including future exploration fields, for a period of 50 years.

The sources indicated that the al-Alimi Council renewed its commitment to all agreements signed by Hadi.
