Yemeni foreign minister discusses peace opportunities with UN envoy

  • The Yemeni official reviewed his government’s ongoing efforts to mitigate the disastrous effects of the devastating war

Yemeni Foreign Minister Mohammad Al-Hadrami discussed on Thursday with United Nations Secretary General’s Special Envoy Martin Griffiths the chances for peace in his country.

Al-Hadrami reiterated the Yemeni government’s keenness to achieve peace based on the implementation of UN Security Council resolutions related to Yemen.

The UN envoy reaffirmed his commitment to work towards the implementation of the Stockholm Agreement.

The armed conflict between the Yemeni government and southern Yemeni secessionists has ceased in recent days. Meanwhile, the Saudi-led Arab coalition has picked up its fight against the Houthi militia with a recent advance in the Hodiedah front.  

Meanwhile, Al-Hadrami in a recent event renewed his call on the international community and global organizations to help mitigate the effects of the war caused by the Iranian-allied Houthis.

Al-Hadrami, speaking at a gathering organized by the Permanent Delegation of Germany to the UN in cooperation with the United Nations Development Program in New York, stressed the need to resume the development process in Yemen.

The Yemeni official reviewed his government’s ongoing efforts to mitigate the disastrous effects of the devastating war caused by the Houthis.

Al-Hadrami also called for the need to verify the information circulated about Yemen in various international media that does not reflect the full picture or truth about Yemen, according to the official Yemeni News Agency.
