New York – Saba
The Permanent Representative of our country to the United Nations in New York, Abdullah Al-Saadi, discussed with the Officer-in-Charge of the UN Capital Development Fund (UNCDF) Mourad Wahba, today, strengthening cooperation between Yemen and the Fund.

Ambassador Al-Saadi stressed the importance of strengthening partnership with the United Nations Fund for Productive Projects and the rest of the United Nations agencies, expressing support and encouragement for the government to work on economic and development programs that contribute to strengthening resilience and alleviating human and economic suffering to move to the stage of early recovery.

He pointed out that Yemen had an ambitious program to reduce the severe centralization represented in the issuance of the Local Authority Law of 2000 and the national strategy for the transition to local government with broad powers in 2008.

However, all these plans and programs were eliminated due to the coup of the terrorist Houthi militia, its seizure of state institutions and the capabilities of the Yemeni people, and the harnessing of all capabilities and resources in the areas under its control to serve its project and finance its war.
