Yemen’s Foreign Minister Hisham Sharaf met on Monday with the International Organization for Migration (IOM) Regional Director for the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) Carmela Godeau and her accompanying delegation.

The delegation arrived in the war-torn country in an official visit that will last for several days.

The officials discussed a number of issues related to the challenges faced by Yemen regarding the immigrants and internally displaced people and the possible ways to provide them with the facilities, as well as address migration issues and the influx of migrants to the country from neighboring countries.

The meeting emphasized the need for the humanitarian international organization’s cooperation in order to lift the ban imposed by the Saudi Arabia-led coalition against Yemen.

The meeting also highlighted the issue of the financial transitions to Yemen and the concerted international efforts to open Sana'a international Airport before civil and humanitarian flights.

Assisting non-Yemeni refugees in Yemen who want to come back to their homes as well as refugees who are still coming to Yemen from the Horn of Africa countries as well as the internally displaced people was also discussed by the officials.
