RIYADH-SABA
Yemen's Foreign Minister expressed the Yemeni people's thanks to the outgoing UN special envoy who is going to step down at the end of this February after nearly three years trying to broker a solution to the Yemeni conflict.

Minister Abdul-Malik al-Mekhlafi held a farewell meeting with the outgoing mediator Ismail Ould Cheikh Ahmed in Riyadh on Tuesday.

Al-Mekhlafi said: "We have supported the envoy all along, and have been confident that he loves Yemen and earnestly sought to broker peace." "For that we, thank in him on the part of the Yemeni people who will continue to remember his efforts."
Ould Cheikh said that peace in Yemen should build up on what had been agreed upon in the Kuwait talks. He affirmed that no armed militia can combine between retaining weapons and being a peace partner.

He thanked Yemen's president and government for having been cooperative and showing sincere and constructive reaction toward his peace brokerage attempts.
