News - Yemen: Deputy Foreign Minister Hussein Al-Ezzi affirmed on Tuesday that peace is achieved by ending the US-Saudi aggression against Yemen.

“Peace and Yemeni-Yemeni dialogue require ending the aggression, neutralizing the foreign interference, and canceling Resolution 2216,” Al-Ezzi wrote in his Twitter account. “Without that, peace will remain just words.”

Al-Ezzi's remarks came a day after the UN envoy to Yemen presented his briefing to the Security Council.

The briefing of the UN envoy to Yemen cast heavy shadows on the political and economic scene in the country, as part of a seemingly endless rumination process to continue the war and blockade.

The briefing of Hans Grundberg contained many inaccuracies about the reality of what was happening. 

In addition to the envoy's ovation of opening limited flights between Sana'a airport and Jordan, and showing that step as an achievement to be reckoned with for Saudi Arabia, Grundberg shuffled the cards with regard to the war of starvation that the people of Yemen are being subjected to, at the hands of the coalition. 

This is by calling on “the parties in Yemen to immediately de-escalate economically and address near- and longer-term economic priorities,” according to the UN envoy.
