Yemen’s Legitimacy Holds Onto 3 References

Yemeni Prime Minister Maeen Abdulmalik said on Tuesday that his country holds onto the three references as a condition for comprehensive peace with Houthi militias.
“The path to a peace (deal) between the government and the Houthi militants is clear but faces the obstacle of Houthi intransigence,” the PM said.
The three references are represented by the Gulf initiative, its executive mechanism, outcomes of the national dialogue and relevant UN resolutions, mainly resolution 2216.
During a meeting he held on Tuesday with Dutch Ambassador to Yemen Irma Marie van Duron in Riyadh, Abdulmalik noted that a key obstacle to peace remains Iran’s ongoing financial and military support for the insurgents in defiance of UN resolutions.
Abdulmalik has in the past days held a series of meetings with ambassadors to discuss the ongoing military escalation by the Houthis on several fronts, and the atrocities they have committed against civilians, namely in Al Jawf governorate.
The Yemeni minister hailed "the strong international position" that finally limited the Houthi ability to loot humanitarian aid.
The Dutch ambassador hailed the Yemeni government's efforts to alleviate the humanitarian crisis and pledged continued support for Yemen.
Last week, Abdulmalik held talks with UN special envoy for Yemen Martin Griffiths, who spoke about de-escalation efforts and a political solution in the country.
The Yemeni government says it fully supports the efforts made by the UN envoy for a successful political process. However, the legitimate government accuses the Houthis of rejecting to implement the Stockholm Agreement and of violating the truce.
“The continued Houthi determination to foil peace efforts in Yemen proves their lack of seriousness” in resolving the country’s crisis, Saba quoted Abdulmalik as saying last week.
