GENEVA-SABA
The speaker of the Yemeni parliament Sultan al-Barakani has briefed the Inter-Parliamentary Union's Secretary General Martin Chungong on the activity of the Yemeni parliament since it resumed its routine sessions in the country's eastern city of Sayoon early last month.

Al-Barakani and other Yemeni MPs gave Chungong an account on Yemen's acute humanitarian crisis and stalemated conflict as a result of the Houthi coup of September 2014, triggering of the ongoing war and stubborn avoidance of peaceful settlement.
