MARIB-SABA
Member of the Presidential Leadership Council General Lieutenant Sultan al-Eradah received Wednesday here the UN Envoy for Yemen Hans Grundberg, in a first visit to the UN envoy to Marib, for discussing latest developments in humanitarian, political, economic, military and security fields.

Al-Eradah welcomed the UN envoy and the accompanying delegation in Marib, praising UN efforts aiming at supporting peace process in Yemen, pointing out to what has been accomplished in prisonors and kidnapped people' file, in addition to UN successful efforts of emptying Safir Oil Tanker, making Yemen and the whole world away of environmental, economic and humanitarian disaster.

Member of the Presidential Leadership Council renewed support of the council to efforts of the UN envoy to realize peace in Yemen, taking into account commitment to the three agreed upon references; the GCC Initiative and its Executive Mechanism, the Outcomes of the National Dialogue Conference and Security Council's Resolution 2216.

" The international community must understand that Houthi and his militia are in need of rehabilitation process to be ready for peace as he is seeking the tactical peace and those who represent him in the negotiations are mere political cover and a cover for the Jihadi and military system," said al-Eradah.

Houthis negotiators' duty is just misleading the international community and absorbing its efforts to be able to continue their war on Yemeni people as this group, like any other terrorist force, lives only under war, added al-Eradah.

He confirmed that the solution in Yemen (as a whole) leads in the end to regaining the state institutions, as splitting the solution serves only Houthi militia like Stockholm Agreement, pointing out that Houthi wants to implement only the article serving his interests and relinquish implementing other articles and there are many examples on this.

He emphasized necessity of directing the international community to support the law not making comparison between the logic of law and the logic of violence as Houthi militia works day and night on feeding terrorism and coordinate with other terrorist groups.

Member of the Presidential Leadership Council al-Eradah called upon Yemen's friends to help the government overcome its economic crisis over targeting oil ports by Houthi militia, thanking Saudi Arabia for its economic and relief support to Yemeni people.

For his part, the UN envoy confirmed aspirations for accomplishing progress in the political process, uttering keenness on Yemen's security and stability.
