Abdullah al-Alimi calls for collective international response to development priorities in Yemen

[24/09/2025 05:35]

NEW YORK - SABA
Member of the Presidential Leadership Council Dr. Abdullah al-Alimi has called on the international community to adopt flexible financing mechanisms for development in the Republic of Yemen and fragile states.

He called for helping them be a real lever for global prosperity, and not remain captive to cycles of violence, poverty, and famine.

in the peech of the Republic of Yemen before the first summit for a sustainable global economy, held on the sidelines of the United Nations General Assembly meetings, al -Alimi said that this is the right time for equity, which begins with collective and flexible financing mechanisms for development priorities in Yemen and fragile states, including debt exemptions and direct support for productive sectors.

Dr. Abdullah al-Alimi stressed that investing in the green economy, clean energy and digital transformation is one way to create job opportunities for millions of young people in Yemen and the developing world.

Al-Alimi expressed his hope that this summit would place Yemen and the countries of conflict at the heart of its priorities, so that half the world would not remain left behind while the other half would move alone towards the future, explaining that a sustainable world cannot be based on a prosperous part and another drowning in famine and wars.

He pointed out that Yemen is one of the countries that most embodies these challenges due to the war imposed by a terrorist militia supported by a rogue foreign country, pointing out that this war not only destroyed Yemen's economy and infrastructure, but also turned its natural resources and sea lanes into hostages for blackmail and threats.

The Leadership Council member stressed, "These threats are no longer an internal Yemeni affair; rather, they are a direct threat to global trade and the international economy, which we are meeting today to sustain."

"Therefore, supporting Yemen today is not only a gift to a suffering people, but also an investment in stabilizing the global economy, protecting energy security, and ensuring freedom of international navigation," he said.

He reiterated that stability and sustainable development in Yemen require sustainable peace, considering that the way to achieve this is to end the Houthi coup and restore state institutions, without which development opportunities will remain very limited.
