RIYADH: At a time when he should have acted like a statesman and boarded the plane scheduled to take him to Riyadh on Tuesday evening to meet and shake hands with Yemeni President Rashad Al-Alimi — agreeing to prioritize the interests of the Yemeni people and seek forgiveness for actions taken for personal gain at the expense of the nation — Aidarous Al-Zubaidi chose instead a “no-show,” cementing his image as a traitor to his country. Not only that, but he confirmed this by opening weapons depots and attempting to incite chaos in an “after me, the deluge” fashion.
