The initiative that involves a nationwide ceasefire and the reopening of air and sea links was announced by Saudi Foreign Minister Prince Faisal bin Farhan Al Saud during a press conference.
According to the Saudi Minister, political negotiations between the Saudi-backed government and the Houthis would begin again depending on the acceptance from the Yemeni sides.
Following the Saudi announcement, Qatar’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MOFA) issued a statement highlighting the country’s welcoming stance toward efforts to stop the war in Yemen and to put an end to the suffering of the Yemeni people.
