SMA NEWS – GENEVA
The Special Envoy of the Secretary-General for Yemen, Hans Grundberg, welcomed the visit by an Ansar Allah-led delegation to Riyadh. He expressed gratitude for the efforts of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and the Sultanate of Oman aimed at reaching solutions to several contentious issues to facilitate the resumption of an intra-Yemeni political process under the auspices of the United Nations. The Special Envoy also stressed the importance of continued concerted regional and international engagement to accompany Yemen on its path towards sustainable peace that meets the aspirations of Yemenis in all their diversity.
“The renewed momentum is an important step that contributes positively to the United Nations’ effort to mediate an agreement between Yemenis on measures to improve living conditions, a sustainable nationwide ceasefire, and an inclusive political process under United Nations auspices. There is a continued need to work together and build on the gains and progress of the past months to initiate an inclusive platform where Yemenis can come together, grapple with their differences, and agree on solutions to achieve peace, recovery, and development,” the United Nations’ Envoy said.
