Amid the complex historical turning points facing the region, the Southern Transitional Council (STC) has emerged not as a transient political entity, but as a national necessity imposed by the demands of the current phase.

Supporting the STC as a unifying political framework for the South stems from its role as the vessel in which the aspirations of the people have converged, and the umbrella that has succeeded in unifying political fragmentation under a shared vision aimed at restoring the state and building its institutions.

The STC’s rise to its current position was not a coincidence, but rather the result of a long accumulation of struggle and sacrifice. It has successfully transformed the Southern cause from a rights-based demand into a comprehensive political project that enjoys regional and international recognition.

As a key partner in the Riyadh Agreement and the Riyadh Consultations, the STC has demonstrated its ability to balance adherence to national principles with the political flexibility required to solidify Southern presence within sovereign decision-making centers.

The value of Southern leadership, headed by President Aidarous Al-Zubaidi, is evident in its exceptional ability to manage complex crises. Despite facing security challenges such as counterterrorism efforts, and economic pressures stemming from service disruptions and resource constraints, the leadership has remained committed to the principle that “politics serves sovereignty.”

On the military front, the leadership has secured field gains through the Southern Armed Forces, which serve as the primary safeguard against external ambitions and intrusive projects.

On the diplomatic front, the leadership has successfully conveyed the voice of the South to the corridors of the United Nations and global decision-makers, emphasizing that regional stability begins with a just resolution to the Southern issue in accordance with the will of its people.

The strength and continuity of the STC are rooted in the broad popular alignment behind it. This support is not merely a mandate, but a mutual commitment to move forward toward achieving the aspirations of the envisioned federal state.

The progress achieved in restructuring the STC and expanding its base through Southern national dialogue reflects the true spirit of national partnership and closes the door to attempts aimed at fragmenting the social fabric.

The Southern Transitional Council remains the decisive force in the political equation and the true guarantor of safeguarding the hard-earned gains. Rallying behind this unifying framework and supporting the decisions of its leadership represents today the most direct and secure path toward stability and overcoming all challenges aimed at obstructing the Southern liberation path.
