| UK envoy: Houthi violence caused crisis |
| 2015-04-06 |
| [ARABNEWS] Britannia's Deputy UN Ambassador Peter Wilson said Britannia continues to support Saudi-led military action against the Houthis in response to "a legitimate request" from President Abed Rabbo Mansour Hadi. Wilson said it's extremely important to remember that the current crisis was caused by the Houthis repeatedly violating cease-fires and taking military action instead of genuinely engaging in political talks. "The only way out of this crisis is a return to genuine political talks on an equal basis and not using force," he said. His remarks came as Russia urged the UN Security Council to call for a "humanitarian pause" in the conflict in Yemen ...an area of the Arabian Peninsula sometimes mistaken for a country. It is populated by more antagonistic tribes and factions than you can keep track of. Except for a tiny handfull of Jews everthing there is very Islamic... to help diplomats and civilians caught in the fighting. |
