CAIRO-SABA
In a speech addressed to Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Foreign Affairs Abdul-Malik al-Mekhlafi, the Arab League Secretary General Ahmed Abu El Gheyt commended the efforts made by Yemen in confronting the Zionist agenda in the Arab and African region, and in defending the holy Al-Quds (Jerusalem) city and preventing any other countries from adopting the unilateral American position to recognize Al-Quds as the capital of Israel.
Abu El Gheyt also valued the effort made by Yemen together with the rest of the Arab states in countering Israel's bid to join the UN Security Council, which led to Israel's decision to withdraw its candidacy for the Security Council in 2019/2020.
"I applaud the efforts undertaken by your esteemed State in this direction in the framework of collective Arab action. I am confident that this coordinated Arab effort will continue at the highest level to prevent the normalization of the status of Israel within the United Nations system and to address its attempts to penetrate the African continent at the expense of the Palestinian cause and the Arab interests," said Abu El Gheyt
