Bin Habtoor also discussed with the minister the ministry’s follow-up with the United Nations and the European Union regarding the situation of international organizations operating in Yemen.

Bin Habtoor and Sharaf discussed aspects related to the displacement of more than three and a half million citizens due to airstrikes and military operations of the countries of aggression and their mercenaries, in addition to suspending dues of the majority of the state’s public employees.

On his part, the foreign minister said that aggression countries are trying to blackmail the situation in Yemen and impose their agendas in arranging a political settlement and peace using the method of freezing funds that have pledged to face the burdens of human suffering.

Sharaf said the two countries are practicing a policy of starvation and the seizure of oil derivatives vessels from time to time to increase the suffering of the Yemeni people.

The minister noted the political leadership and the National Rescue Government remain committed to the option of a political settlement and a just peace that will bring security and stability to Yemen and its people.
