President Al-Zubaidi Receives Head of EU Delegation to our country
President Aidarous Qassem Al-Zubaidi, the president of the Southern Transitional Council (STC) and the deputy head of the Presidential Leadership Council (PLC), received at his residence in the Saudi capital, Riyadh, on Monday, Mr. Gabriel Munuera Vials, the ambassador of the European Union to Yemen.
The two sides discussed the latest developments in the political process and the regional and international endeavours aimed at ending the conflict and bringing peace to the country, in addition to the Houthi escalation on various fronts and its terrorist attacks that target oil-exporting ports in our country.
Furthermore, they reviewed the ways and mechanisms to support the PLC and the power-sharing government in developing urgent solutions to revive the deteriorating economy as a result of the Houthi terrorist attacks on oil-exporting facilities. In this regard, President Al-Zubaidi called on the EU to intensify the humanitarian aid and expedite receiving the pledges provided by the official brothers in the Arab coalition countries, which would contribute to stopping the deteriorating exchange rate of the local currency and put an end to the rocketing prices of food commodities.
The meeting touched on the positive results achieved in the military operation "Arrows of the East" in Abyan governorate and its constructive consequences on the neighbouring governorates, as well as the efforts made to stabilize the situation in the Valley of Hadramout by implementing the military provisions of the Riyadh Agreement.
For his part, Mr. Viñals praised the pivotal role of the STC as a main party in the political process in the country due to its popular weight at the local level, and its prominent political role at the regional level, further to its role in supporting the PLC and the power-sharing government.
Ambassador Vinals affirmed the keenness of the EU to support the unity of the PLC and the power-sharing government and to boost the peacemaking endeavours of the United Nations to end the war and bring peace to the region in general.
The meeting was attended by Mr. Mohammed Al-Ghaithi, director of the General Directorate for Foreign Affairs (GDFA) of the STC and head of the Consultation and Reconciliation Committee of the PLC, Mr. Imad Mohammed, office director of the deputy head of the PLC, and Mr. Saleh Al-Quaiti, representative of GDFA.
