Saudi Arabia backed by West in Yemen aggression, investigative journalist says
Press TV has conducted an interview with Tony Gosling, investigative journalist from London, to discuss the Saudi-led airstrikes against Yemen.
The Saudi aggression began on March 26 in a bid to restore power to Yemen’s Abd Rabbuh Mansur Hadi, the fugitive president and a close ally of Riyadh.
Gosling says Yemeni people have decided that Hadi is a US-Saudi puppet and they wanted him out of office.
“The whole weight of the Western world, the military industrial complex, the intelligence services etc. are now coming down on the side of the existing president,” he notes.
The analyst also says what the West and Saudi Arabia and their regional allies are doing in Yemen, are “illegal under the international law.”
Saudi Arabia is supporting the ISIL terrorist group and al-Qaeda in the region, he argues.
“It is an unholy alliance between the banks and arms lobby in the West which is pushing this kind of provocative braking of international law.”
Commenting on the hypocrisy of Western media in reporting the aggression against Yemen, he says, “BBC is an example of unholy alliance with banks and new chairwoman of the BBC is from HSBC bank who still keeps her job at the bank,” adding that “the BAE systems that is the biggest arms manufacturer in Europe is now the vice-chair of the BBC and the chairman Roger Carr of the arms firm is now running the BBC, so that is why this is not properly being reported in the West.”
