Mohammad Ali al-Houthi, the chairman of the Revolutionary Committee warned the United Nations on Saturday that the conditions put forward by the exiled regime of Abd Rabu Mansour Hadi are aimed at obstructing planned peace talks in Sweden.
“I believe that the UN envoy is unaware that the US-Saudi-UAE coalition and its allies put conditions to obstruct and lead to a collapse of UN peace talks,” Al-Houthi wrote in a Twitter post.
Hadi foreign minister said the authority of Hadi is sticking to the UN Security Council resolution 2216 and “does not need any new decisions” in reference to the British draft resolution.
