Iranian Ambassador to London Hamid Baeedinejad lauded a new resolution passed by the UN Security Council on Yemen as political success for the axis of resistance.
"After several days of lengthy negotiations between the UN Security Council Member- States and the concerned countries, the Security Council has endorsed a new resolution on Yemen which approves the measures agreed upon in Stockholm, and has tasked the UN Secretary General with adopting the necessary measures to monitor a truce in port of Hodeida,” Baeedinejad wrote on his Twitter account on Friday.
He pointed to two important political developments in the new resolution as the failure of the US-Saudi Arabia-UAE coalition in lodging the baseless accusation about the transfer of Iranian missiles to Yemen thanks to the dynamic diplomacy of Iran in cooperation with the Council members and their insistence on rejecting the UK’s proposal on identifying the causes of the human catastrophe in Yemen.
On Friday, the United Nations Security Council unanimously voted to authorize the deployment of UN monitors to observe the implementation of a newly-agreed ceasefire in Yemen’s strategic Red Sea port of Hodeida, and the rival forces' pullout from the vital area under a ceasefire that was reached during the UN-brokered peace talks in Sweden last week.
