Did the British Ambassador Save Yemen’s Prime Minister from Dismissal?

ADEN- YOL : Political sources in Riyadh and Aden have revealed that the latest session of Yemen’s Presidential Leadership Council, held about a month ago, witnessed intense discussions about the potential dismissal of Prime Minister Dr. Ahmed bin Mubarak. Several candidates were reportedly considered as possible replacements.
According to the same sources, the British Ambassador to Yemen Abda Sharif personally intervened in these deliberations, holding individual meetings with members of the Presidential Leadership Council in Riyadh. She reportedly urged them to grant bin Mubarak a six-month window to improve government performance and address the country’s deteriorating conditions.
In a significant development, however, diplomatic sources indicated that the U.S. position on the Yemeni Prime Minister has recently shifted. Two weeks ago, American diplomats conveyed a clear message to some council members, stating: “Either work with him or dismiss him.” This statement reflects growing Western political frustration over the paralysis and stagnation that have plagued the Yemeni government, a stark contrast to the previously strong U.S. support for bin Mubarak.
This shift comes amid escalating political and economic crises in Yemen, as well as increasing international pressure on the government to implement genuine reforms or undergo a leadership change. The key question now is: Can the Prime Minister turn the situation around in the coming months, or will mounting pressure force a new reality?
