FM discusses with UN aspects related to developments to face of Coruna virus outbreak

SANAA, March 17 (YPA) – Minister of Foreign Affairs, Hisham Sharaf, discussed on Tuesday with the UN Resident Coordinator for Yemen, Lise Grande, aspects related to the developments to face of Corunavirus outbreak.

At the meeting, the official touched upon the latest precautionary measures made by the National Salvation Government in confronting the epidemic.

The officials affirmed that the spread of the Corona epidemic in the countries of the world, including the neighboring countries, has increased Yemen’s fears recently as a result of the deteriorating humanitarian situation due to the ongoing war imposed by the Saudi-led aggression coalition and its blockade on the Yemeni people.

The minister urged the United Nations organizations to provide urgent medical assistance to Yemen to face any the Corona epidemic outbreak, including detection and prevention devices, calling to stop the aggression and lift the siege.
