Economic Reforms and Progress
In addition to international matters, President Alimi praised the efforts of the government, the Central Bank, and law enforcement authorities. He noted the significant successes in economic and financial reforms, which have led to a marked improvement in the national currency’s value and essential goods. He also emphasized the Central Bank’s enhanced independence in managing monetary policy.
Commitment to State Obligations
President Alimi reaffirmed the Presidential Leadership Council’s commitment to fulfilling the state’s obligations, particularly regarding timely salary payments for employees and improving services. He stressed the importance of strengthening the legal status of the state in Aden, in partnership with allies and friends, which he believes will lead to promising developments in the coming days.
Acknowledgment of Support from Allies
In this context, President Alimi commended the supportive positions of the coalition led by Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates. He acknowledged their humanitarian and developmental interventions, which have helped stabilize state institutions and mitigate the humanitarian crisis exacerbated by Houthi militia attacks, supported by the Iranian regime, on oil facilities and maritime shipping.
