RIYADH-SABA
Member of the Presidential Leadership Council, Dr. Abdullah al-Alimi, met with US Ambassador to Yemen, Steven Fagin, to discuss ongoing peace endeavors and obstacles posed by Iranian backing for Houthi terrorist militia.
He welcomed Ambassador Fagin back to Yemen and expressed gratitude for Washington's support of reconciliation efforts, counter-terrorism collaboration, and initiatives to thwart Iranian arms shipments to Houthis.
Their conversation encompassed results from Yemen's participation in the 80th UN General Assembly session and diplomatic meetings held to mobilize international backing for restoring Yemen's sovereignty, terminating the coup, and accelerating economic revitalization to alleviate war consequences.
Dr. al-Alimi commended US-Yemen cooperation in combating terrorism, securing borders, and disrupting Iranian funding for Houthis. He thanked the US for substantial economic assistance to Yemen's government and central bank, facilitating economic restructuring and anti-corruption drives.
He also acknowledged Saudi Arabia's continued fraternal support, including a recent donation of $1.38 billion to bolster Yemen's economy.
Dr. al-Alimi praised President Trump's vigorous efforts against Iranian militias.
