Addressing Local Challenges and International Diplomacy
The President briefed the Consultation and Reconciliation Authority’s leadership on the latest local developments, priorities, and necessary reforms to strengthen unity. He emphasized the need to confront financial and humanitarian pressures exacerbated by the Houthi militia’s terrorist attacks—backed by the Iranian regime—on oil facilities and international shipping lanes, which have depleted the state’s treasury by approximately 70% of its main resources.
Moreover, President Al-Alimi shared outcomes from his meetings with regional and international actors, highlighting efforts by allies and friends to reduce economic escalation and revive the political process based on a roadmap proposed by Saudi Arabia.
