Yemen's delegation headed by Minister of Industry and Trade dr Mohammed Al-Maitami attended also the meeting of Arab Trade Ministers chaired by the Saudi Minister of Trade and Investment.

During the two meetings Dr Al-Maitami stressed the importance of taking into account Yemen's current circumstances and increasing institutional and technical support until it gets out of its dilemma.

The minister cited the catastrophic economic challenges Yemen has been struggling with as a result of the coup carried out by Houthi militia that obstructed legal government's plans aimed to address several developmental challenges.

Dr Al-Maitami called on the governments of the member states of the two groups to prop up the legal government so as to retake the state's institutions and re-establish peace that is based on the GCC's Initiative, outcomes of the National Dialogue and UN Security Council resolution 2216. He also called for technical and institutional assistance for economic recovery and reconstruction programs the Yemeni government is planning.
