He blamed the Houthi militia for spoiling the political transition process and preventing the government from putting the outcomes of the National Dialogue in place.

The Minister of Public Works and Highways Dr Ma'aeen Abdulmalik contributed to the discussions; citing the government's action-plan at present. He stated that the legitimate government has been working on re-normalizing situations in the government-held regions.

The Saudi ambassador to Yemen Mohammed Sa'aeed al-Jaber has reiterated that the main objective of the Saudi-led Arab Coalition to restore legality in Yemen is to maintain security and stability in Yemen through reinstating the legitimate authority and state's institutions.

For his part, the spokesperson of the Arab Coalition Command Colonel Turki al-Maliki stressed that war wasn't a choice but an urgent necessity to maintain Yemen and Arab national security. He cited Houthi militia military exercise on the borders of the KSA as an example of the militia's existential threat to the region's stability.
