Transitional Council on Oil Export Rollout
The Southern Transitional Council firmly rejects the decision by the Presidential Leadership Council to resume oil exports and distribute its revenues to all Yemenis, including areas controlled by the Houthi militia. It explained that this decision stems from an regional agreement signed in 2022, which grants the militia the largest share of the revenues under the pretext of their larger population presence, in exchange for refraining from attacking neighboring countries. The Council opposes this arrangement and has faced political pressures and airstrikes as a result. The Council considers that allowing the Houthis to access oil resources would enhance their military capabilities, threaten control over international waterways, and destabilize security and stability in the South. It affirms the necessity of rejecting this decision to preserve the resources and sovereignty of the South.
