During the meeting, they discussed the partnership between the Yemeni government and the U.S. government to implement the decision to classify the Houthi militias as a foreign terrorist organization, aiming to isolate and dry up the funding sources of the militias, support the Yemeni government and ensure the continued delivery of essential needs to citizens.
