The Speaker of Parliament expressed his thanks and gratitude to Mr. Griffiths, highly appreciating his efforts. He stated that the legitimate government and the Arab Coalition led by the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia are seeking for peace.

" Establishing a cease-fire amid these critical conditions of the war and coronavirus is a top priority for the legitimate government", said al-Brakani.
