Riyadh – Saba
President Dr. Rashad Mohammed Al-Alimi, Chairman of the Presidential Leadership Council, received today, Wednesday, the head of the European Union mission, Gabriel Viñales, and the ambassadors of France, and the Kingdom of the Netherlands.

The meeting reviewed the latest developments in the Yemeni situation and the efforts of the brothers in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia to achieve a ceasefire and resume the political process that has been stalled in Yemen since the Houthi militias sabotaged the national consensus in September 2014 with the support of the Iranian regime.

The meeting also touched on developments in the occupied Palestinian territories, the repercussions of the dangerous escalation, the blatant Israeli violations of international humanitarian law, and the European role required to stop the bloodshed and realize the aspirations of the Palestinian people to establish their independent state on the basis of international resolutions and the Arab Peace Initiative.

The Chairman of the Presidential Leadership Council reaffirmed Yemen's position rejecting forced displacement, the attempt to end the Palestinian cause, and Arab, Islamic and international efforts in support for a permanent ceasefire, and facilitating the arrival of the humanitarian aid that the Palestinian people urgently and unconditionally need.

In this context, the Chairman of the Presidential Leadership Council welcomed the success of the Egyptian, Qatari and American mediation in reaching a temporary humanitarian truce to exchange detainees, expressing his hope that these efforts will lead to a comprehensive and sustainable solution to the just Palestinian cause that guarantees security and peace for the region and the world.

The Chairman of the Presidential Council warned of the dangers of dragging the region into a broader proxy conflict of the Israeli occupation and the Iranian regime, and the Houthi militia’s threat to freedom of international navigation, its repercussions on the Yemeni economy, and exacerbating the worst humanitarian crisis in the world, saying that it is the best way to resolve all outstanding issues.
