Supporting the Roadmap to Peace

Dr. Bin Daghr expressed the Shura Council’s support for the roadmap adopted by Saudi Arabia, aimed at reaching a fair and comprehensive solution to the crisis and conflict in Yemen. He emphasized the importance of pressuring the Houthi militias to seriously engage with the roadmap, respect the ceasefire agreement, and build upon it to achieve a permanent cessation of hostilities. This, he argued, would pave the way for lasting and just peace, preserving Yemen’s unity, security, and stability, halting the bloodshed, and moving the country out of its current predicament.

Appreciation for UN Efforts

The President of the Shura Council also praised the efforts of the UN Special Envoy, Hans Grundberg, and his team, insisting on the United Nations playing a decisive and active role in addressing the severe humanitarian violations committed by the Houthi militia against the Yemeni people.
