FM participates in panel discussion on Yemen at the Mediterranean Dialogues Forum

Rome – Saba
Minister of Foreign Affairs, Dr. Ahmed Awad bin Mubarak, participated in a panel discussion entitled “Yemen, Syria, Libya: Unresolved Crises” within the activities of the Mediterranean Dialogues Forum.

The Foreign Minister started the conversation by clarifying the obstacles that the Houthi militia has pursued to prevent the resumption of the political process and thwart all efforts seeking to achieve peace in Yemen.

He pointed out that the basics and references for the solution in Yemen are available, and that the outcomes of the comprehensive national dialogue conference, which dealt with all issues on the Yemeni arena, are considered, along with other references, as an entry point for a comprehensive and sustainable solution in Yemen.

The Foreign Minister explained that the roots of the conflict in Yemen go back to the Houthi militia’s claim of the divine right to rule and its refusal to commit to equal citizenship, which complicated and obstructed the political solution in Yemen.
