Ambassador Raja underscored the importance of enhancing cooperation and coordination between Yemen and the United States across various fields, in a manner commensurate with the close relations between the two friendly countries and that contributes to supporting the Yemeni government’s efforts to address the challenges threatening the security and stability of Yemen and the region.
