English - Thursday 21 September 2023 الساعة 04:54 pmThe Consultation and Reconciliation Commission in Yemen stressed the need for the Presidential Council to announce the joint negotiating delegation and activate its role immediately, explaining that delaying this step will contribute to the absence of legitimacy and its institutions in the file of stopping the war and the peace process.
The Commission stressed the need for any comprehensive and direct political consultations between the legitimacy, led by the Presidential Command Council, and the Houthi militias to be on the basis of legitimacy and the coup, and in accordance with the terms of reference for the comprehensive solution agreed upon locally, regionally, and internationally, and the commitments included in the agreements between the forces and components of the legitimacy.
It said that the solutions must lead to the restoration of all state institutions, ending the coup and addressing its effects, disarming the Houthi militias, and ending the threats exercised by these militias through the continuous military buildup and their targeting of economic assets that represent the economic nerve of the country.
