Khalid bin Salman: Saudi Arabia Supports All Efforts to End Yemen Conflict

The Saudi Deputy Defense Minister meets with the Yemeni Prime Minister

Saudi Deputy Defense Minister Prince Khalid bin Salman has stressed that the Kingdom supports all efforts to end the Yemeni conflict.

The Deputy Defense Minister held talks with Yemeni Prime Minister Maeen Abdulmalik on Thursday to discuss relations.

“Met with the Yemeni prime minister to review our close cooperation, which is based on our common vision for peace and security, and discussed the Kingdom’s assistance to Yemen and its positive implications on the wellbeing and prosperity of the Yemeni people,” Prince Khalid said on Twitter following the meeting.

The Kingdom is committed to supporting the Yemeni government in all fields, he said.

He added that Riyadh supported “all efforts to end the conflict, implement a ceasefire, alleviate the humanitarian crisis, and reach a political resolution that guarantees peace and prosperity for the brotherly people of Yemen.”

The prime minister voiced appreciation for the recently announced Saudi grant to help power electric stations in Yemen.

Both sides agreed on the importance of completing the implementation of the Riyadh Agreement, build on the positive aspects that have been achieved during the past period, and resolve any differences through dialogue.
