Bahrain's Crown Prince Salman bin Hamad Al Khalifa called for continuing the joint work aimed at reinforcing international and regional security and stability.
He received the British Foreign Secretary James Cleverly on the sidelines of the 18th edition of the IISS Manama Dialogue.
Prince Salman noted that Bahrain remains a beacon of peace, emphasizing the Kingdom's commitment in supporting international efforts that consolidate security, and peace.
During the Manama Dialogue, Yemen's Foreign Minister Ahmed bin Awad bin Mubarak denounced the practices of the Iran-backed Houthi militias, saying they are “a threat to the international security and peace”.
He urged the international community to exert more pressure on the Houths by endorsing the political solution based on the three references – the Gulf Initiative, the outcomes of Yemen's National Dialogue Conference, and UN Resolution 2216.
Yemen News Agency (SABA) reported that
Bin Mubarak and his UK counterpart met in Manama to discuss Houthi attacks on Yemen’s economic installations and oil ports.
Addressing the conference, bin Mubarak said the Iranian project has become clear and that the militias supported by it have become a threat jeopardizing the security of the Arabian Peninsula, region and world.
He stressed that the Yemeni government is committed to achieving peace to end the war and the bloodshed in Yemen.
“Any peaceful settlement in Yemen can't succeed unless the Yemenis agree on resolving their internal issues according to the outcomes of the National Dialogue Conference, and on a fair distribution of power and wealth,” he stated.
Moreover, the minister noted that the more the Houthis advance militarily the more they reject peace.
He stressed the importance of implementing the Riyadh Agreement as a pillar to achieving stability and peace, as well as uniting all political forces that oppose the Iranian agenda.
Furthermore, he demanded that the international and regional communities provide more support to the Yemeni government in its efforts to overcome economic challenges.
