RIYADH-SABA
Foreign Minister Khaled Alyemany and the British ambassador to Yemen Michael Aaron discussed the ongoing preparations for consultations that will hopefully bring a lasting political solution to the Yemeni conflict that resulted from the Houthi coup in 2014.

They discussed the efforts of the government especially the central bank to tackle the immediate economic concerns such as the maintaining of a stable exchange rate for the national currency and allowing private investments to operate in an obstacles-free environment.

Alyemany emphasized the need for international support to Yemen to start working on the developmental level, rather than stay confined to the humanitarian relief aid level.

The ambassador emphasized support for the UN peace mediator's efforts to alleviate the humanitarian crisis and improve the economic situations.
