Saudi Arabia, UAE Pledge $200 Million to Yemen in Aid for Ramadan
The Security Council of the United Nations commended
the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates after they pledged
US$200 million in humanitarian relief assistance for Yemenis for the Holy Month
of Ramadan.
Members of the Security Council expressed deep
concern that the agreements reached between the Yemeni Government and
Al-Houthis in Stockholm four months ago had not yet been implemented and called
for their immediate implementation.
This came in a press statement issued Thursday by
the Council, the Saudi Press Agency (SPA) reported.
The statement affirmed the Council's support for the
Stockholm Agreement between the two parties, its full support for the Special
Envoy of the Secretary-General to Yemen and the Chairman of the Coordinating
Committee for Re-deployment.
