The Yemeni Prime Minister, Dr. Ahmed Awad bin Mubarak, today, suddenly resigned from his position, announced that it would be officially delivered to the President of the Presidential Command Council, Dr. Rashad Al -Alimi, in a move that reflects internal differences about his constitutional powers and his inability to make government reforms.

The announcement came through a post on his official account on Twitter, accompanied by the text of the resignation, which revealed the details of the challenges he faced during his term.  

In his message addressed to the Presidential Command Council, Bin Mubarak explained that his resignation comes as a result of:

- A failure to work with its constitutional powers in making reform decisions, especially in amending the government formation.  

- Difficulties in reforming state institutions due to "unjustified restrictions", despite what he described as achievements in the areas of anti-corruption and rationalization of spending.  

- Differences about the priorities of the ruling, as he stressed that the "five tracks" it adopted (such as financial and administrative reform) achieved savings of $ 133.5 million in the electric fuel bill within one year.  

Achievements or exaggeration?

Bin Mubarak claimed in his message to achieve fundamental reforms, including:

- Reducing the electricity bill by canceling energy purchase contracts in Aden.  

- Enhancing the presence of state institutions in the temporary capital.  

- Maximizing the benefit from external grants and loans.  

But he did not clarify the details of these allegations or submit documents supporting them, at a time when Yemen is witnessing an unprecedented economic collapse.  

Resignation in light of severe divisions

The resignation comes at a time when the Yemeni government is witnessing divisions on managing economic and security files, amid the escalation of international pressure to achieve political stability, and it is believed that Bin Mubarak faced opposition within the Presidential Command Council, especially on his powers to dismiss the ministers or restructure the government.  

The resignation came after news of his dismissal and the appointment of Salem bin Brik as his successor.
