1) reading into #Houthis ceasefire plan, it is majorly between Houthis & the coalition and no implicit mention to the ligitimate government of Yemen. Although it says ceasefire in all fronts in #Yemen, it only specified outside attacks on Yemen [by coalition] & attacks on KSA.

2) it refers to a freeze of hostilities by all “forces” without specifying which forces. Is it limited to coalition and Houthis as main parties to the proposed agreement? Not clear.

3) it neutralize coalition by proposing lifting #Yemen from under chapter seven and calling for not siding with a military party against each other.

4) it refers to implementation of Stockholm and specifies Hodaida. No mention to current fronts including Taiz, Mareb, Dhaleh, and Jouf. Calling to support UNMHA’s mandate.

5) it proposes an implementation mechanism for ceasefire including forming a joint military committee headed by UN, operations room, hotline for monitoring, & monitoring committees. No mention how these members are going to be selected.

6) the plan calls for opening airports including Sana’a airport for international flights. These discussion in Stockholm failed as the gov proposed allowing Sana’a airport to operate internally rather than internationally and Houthis refused.

7) the plan proposed opening roads inside #Yemen eluding to lifting siege, however, for Taiz for exp., the roads mentioned do not cover all main roads. Which means the city will still be besieged.

8) plan proposes lifting maritime blockade, allowing UNVIM to continue for 6 months, & proposing coalition to not interfere. One alarming shipments allowed is that of heavy equipment. Also calling for removal of foreigner representation in ports which eludes to removal of UNMHA.

9) The plan proposes allowing maintenance crews to address safer tanker. Houthis have been blocking the maintainance process which is causing an environmental risk.

10) Houthis are calling for payment of salaries as per 2014 lists. This was a legitimate government demand. Not clear whether Houthis are asking the ligitimate government to pay? Government imposed conditions of disbursing salaries to Houthis payment of revenues to central bank.

11) Houthis have also proposed coalition countries to finance salaries for the the coming 10 years. Houthis also proposed oil revenues to be allocated to Yemeni families which is more of patriotic romantic idea.

12) The Houthis still insist of destroying the new currency printed by Aden Central Bank. This has been an issue for sometime now as they banned citizens under their control from using these new notes in order to continue to control the economy through their e-rial strategy.

13) under reconstruction and reparation, the plan only names coalition as the party to fund these programmes and only victims of coalition and its affiliates. No mention to reparation for Houthis victims or their accountability for the destruction they Houthis have caused.

14) the plan proposed releasing detainees as per agreements facilitated through UN. This file is stuck. The all for all approach including exchanging corpses is just not working and this plan is not proposing anything to remove this bottleneck.

15) on the political process, the plan defends Yemen’s unity, which means @STCSouthArabia aspirations are not addressed. It also refers to @ndcye outcomes that had consensus only.

16) To me this plan is yet another media stunt by Houthis so the international community will clap for them while they continue to lead attacks in military fronts. I hope they prove me wrong. But it seems we will only see a ceasefire between Houthis and KSA but not inside Yemen.

17) still I appreciate the Houthis transparency in publicly sharing their vision.
