Saudi-backed delegation refused to discuss political framework: Head of National Delegation

STOCKHOLM, Dec. 13 (YPA) – Head of the Yemeni negotiating delegation in Sweden consultations, Mohammed Abdulsalam, on Thursday said that “the other party (Saudi-backed delegation) refused to discuss the political framework provided by the United Nations.”

In a press conference held in the Swedish capital Stockholm, Abdulsalam said “Hodeidah file was not signed,” confirming that the national delegation did not refuse to sign it and that there is a humanitarian and moral obligation to implement it.

“We have made significant concessions regarding Hodeidah,” he added.

On Sanaa Airport, he said “We are ready to allow UN logistical role at Sanaa airport.”

He explained that Aden airport is not safe and there are arbitrary procedures, so they did not accept flights through it.
