Yesterday, the UAE expressed its happiness with the increasing positive momentum and unprecedented consensus towards ending the war in Yemen in a way that achieves peace, security and stability, noting that many efforts have been made to achieve this, the latest of which was the holding of Yemeni-Yemeni consultations under the auspices of the Cooperation Council for the Arab States of the Gulf. From March 29 to April 7.
She added, in a statement made by the country’s delegation to a special session of the UN Security Council: “These consultations, which included a broad and diverse representation of political components and civil society, culminated in reaching consensus on drawing up a road map, which we hope will lead to a lasting and comprehensive political solution.”
She called on the “Houthis” to seize this precious opportunity and stop bidding, by engaging seriously in the strenuous efforts to end the war in Yemen. It also stressed the importance of stopping all violations of the armistice, especially their continued bombing of sites in Ma’rib Governorate.
She urged all parties to work with the Special Envoy to make further progress in implementing confidence-building measures, including the exchange of prisoners, opening roads leading to the city of Taiz, and working to transform the temporary truce into a permanent cessation of military and hostilities.
