The PLC reiterated its profound thanks and appreciation to the brothers in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates for their sincere fraternal stances, continuous support for the course of economic and financial reforms,

implementation of recovery and development programs, highlighting in particular the recent Saudi support for the general budget, which reflects the Kingdom's leadership keenness to strengthen economic stability and alleviate the suffering of the Yemeni people.

Regionally, the PLC welcomed the ceasefire agreement in the Gaza Strip, which was sponsored by U.S. President Donald Trump, praising the efforts of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, Egypt, and Qatar, as well as all countries for reaching this historic agreement.
