The Nobel Peace Prize laureate-winning human rights activist, Tawakkol Karman, said that anyone who will participate in the Riyadh talks called for by the Gulf Cooperation Council is a traitor to the supreme national interest. 

Yemen’s president and his staff, including his advisors, along with all the political leaders, representatives of parliament and all officials most likely have no idea about the talks and the agenda of the upcoming Riyadh conference. Only the Saudi ambassador to Yemen knows it, and only his bag contains the talks agenda and supposed outcomes, Tawakkol Karman wrote on her official Facebook page.

Tawakkol Karman also issued a scathing critique of all those who have accepted the conference's invitation, describing them as slaves and subordinates who legitimize Riyadh's destructive policy in Yemen.

Since this is the case, whoever will participate in the talks is a traitor for the supreme national interest, either knowingly or unknowingly, she concluded.
