Iran reiterates supports for Yemeni peace talks

Iranian Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif in a message reiterated Iran's support for the intra-Yemeni talks in Stockholm.

'Iran welcomes initial agreements between Yemeni parties in Stockholm under supervision of UNSG envoy, and strongly supports continuation of talks to achieve final accords on all issues. It is well past time for foreign aggressors to end their airstrikes & crimes against humanity,' Zarif tweeted on Tuesday.

The intra-Yemeni talks which were earlier supposed to be held on September 6 postponed due to Saudis' sabotage.

The first round of the Yemeni peace talks were held on December 2015 in Geneva, but the meeting brought no results.

Saudi Arabia and a number of its regional allies launched a devastating military campaign against Yemen in March 2015, with the aim of bringing the government of Mansour Hadi back to power and crushing the country’s Houthi Ansarullah Movement.

Some 16,000 Yemenis have been killed and thousands more injured since the onset of the Saudi-led aggression.

The assaults of the Saudi-led coalition forces have failed to stop the Yemenis from resisting the aggression.
