The government's delegation carries hopes of Yemeni people on achieving peace on the three references, the peace which ends the coup, all its repercussions and removes all its reasons, said Director of President Office Abdullah al-Alimi.
" The directives of President of the Republic Abd-Rabbo Mansour Hadi state that the government's delegation should make concerns of Yemeni people and their aspirations on top of its priorities and {should} exert efforts for making the consultations successful," added al-Alimi.
He farther said the government considers these consultations a real chance for peace, so we are so keen on seizing all opportunities for avoiding more destruction caused by Houthi rebel militia.
