RIYADH-SABA
Vice President General Ali Mohsen Saleh met the UK ambassador to Yemen Simon Shercliff and reviewed with him the government's efforts to re-normalize the security situation in the liberated parts of the country including the temporary capital, Aden.
The two officials also discussed the humanitarian situation, the progress of liberation and fighting terrorism.
The Vice President said that while the coup Saleh-Houthi militias have been making people's lives difficult, eg. by robbing the Central Bank of Yemen and government revenues and confiscating the humanitarian aid convoys, the government has been pre-occupied with humanitarian relief efforts; the delivery of aid, payment of overdue salaries and establishing peace.
The British ambassador confirmed his government's support to the Yemeni government; the implementation of the UNSC resolution 2216, to end the coup according to the three agreed upon terms of reference.
The Vice President expressed Yemen's sympathy with the UK in the face of terror attacks in the latest of which seven innocent people were overrun by a terror driver over the London Bridge.
