Leader of Yemen’s Ansarullah revolutionary movement Sayyed Abdul Malik Badreddine al-Houthi met with UN Yemen Envoy Martin Griffiths on Tuesday, to whom he stressed the National Delegation’s readiness to just peace and the necessity to stop the aggression, lift the unjust blockade, and reopening the airport since those issues are related to the lives of millions of Yemeni people.

According to the Head of the National Delegation, Mohammad Abdul-Salam, the meeting tackled the necessity to speed up finishing the issue of detainees and recalling the delegation’s previous stances that were proposed by Griffiths during his recent meetings and were accepted by the national delegation but rejected by the other side.

The aggression’s ongoing arbitrary measures, which contradict the legal and humanitarian standards that criminalize using economy as a military card, were also discussed. The UN side was reminded by this issue, including the Supreme Political Council’s initiatives, which go along with the agreement that resulted from the Sweden Consultations, as well as the other side’s negligence of any humanitarian solutions.

In this context, Sayyed al-Houthi held the aggression forces and their mercenaries’ complete responsibility for the ongoing measures and what would result from them, in addition to closing the Sanaa International Airport and the catastrophic humanitarian, economic and health levels of the Yemeni people who are already suffering from this.

The UN side was also reminded with the measures suggested by the National Delegation since the Sweden Agreement and after it, representing the efforts to reopen the airport for passengers, patients, students and others.

Sayyed al-Houthi denounced the other side’s tardiness in making any progress regarding the Hudaydah Agreement although the National Delegation had offered a unilateral step on redeployment in seaports. He also slammed the open violations and delays to make any progress in implementing the deal, holding the other side full responsibility for the consequences, namely the ongoing year-long blockade against the Duraihimi area.
