The Speaker of Parliament confirmed the legitimate Yemeni government to make peace.

" Peace is our option as Yemenis, the legitimate leadership is fully committed to achieve peace, but the militias have rejected all peace proposals", said al-Barakani.

The President of the UN General Assembly demonstrated understanding of the ongoing situations in Yemen and expressed concerns over the exacerbation of the deteriorated situations in Yemen.

He stated that dialogue is the only way that can produce sustainable and fair peace, therefore the efforts must be continued to establish the peace, maintain Yemen's security, stability and unity.
