Vice President reviewed a number of Houthi crimes; killing, kidnapping and terrifying Yemeni people and making them starving, calling the international community for exerting more pressure for implementing international resolutions.

He re-affirmed keenness of the government on realizing peace and supporting UN envoy's efforts for realizing peace based on the three references; the GCC Initiative and its Executive Mechanism, outcomes of the National Dialogue Conference and UN Resolution 2216.
