US Accuses Yemen’s Houthis of Obstructing Peace Efforts
Arab World
Washington - Muath Alamri
The US envoy to Yemen, Tim Lenderking, has warned that the economic instability in Yemen and the ongoing "brutal" Houthi offensive on Marib are exacerbating the humanitarian crisis and obstructing peace efforts. Lenderking met a Saudi delegation in Washington to discuss developments in Yemen and the offensive of the Houthi militias. The US State Department's Bureau of Near Eastern Affairs announced on Twitter that during the meeting, Lenderking discussed the need for rapid implementation of economic reforms to bring "immediate relief to the people." The Saudi delegation included Saudi Ambassador to the US Princess Reema bint Bandar, Saudi Ambassador to Yemen Mohamed Al Jaber, and Arab Coalition Spokesperson Brig. Gen. Turki al-Malki. Sources told Asharq Al-Awsat that Lenderking would return to the Middle East on a new tour, during which he will hold meetings in the region. It will be his 13th trip to the region since he assumed his position last February.
