The meeting dealt with latest developments in the national arena and bilateral ties between the two friendly countries.

The Vice President praised the Great Britain's role in supporting legal government and Yemeni people.

Mohssen touched upon Yemeni peoples torment due to Iran-backed Houthi militias, blaming Iran's constant attempts to target Yemen's and its identity in a bid to make Yemeni territory a launching-pad to threaten international maritime navigation and destabilizing the region's security and stability.

The Vice President affirmed that Yemeni legal government is keen to establish lasting peace that is based on the GCC' brokered-deal, outcomes of the National Dialogue Conference and International Security Council resolution 2216.
