The delegation demanded also the international community to stop Iranian interferences in Yemen and destabilizing the region through its hands in the region, noting to Houthi threat to international maritime navigation.

The parliamentary delegation praised US positions supporting Yemen and its legality in different stages for regaining the state, fighting terrorism and permanent confirmation on Yemen's unity and national goals.
