He made it clear that Yemen participated in big numbers of police forces and army in the framework of UN peacekeeping forces until its participation frozen in 2016.

For his part, the UN official confirmed significance of Yemen's role in peacekeeping forces, noting that suspension of its participation was a loss to the forces.
