Similarly, the Saudi side commended Egypt’s role in de-escalating tensions in the region and supporting efforts for a comprehensive settlement of the Yemeni crisis that meets the aspirations of the Yemeni people.
Both sides stressed the importance of the Houthi terrorist militia engaging positively with efforts to end the Yemeni crisis and dealing seriously with peace initiatives and efforts.
They also affirmed the importance of maintaining the security and stability of the Red Sea region, considering that freedom of navigation there is an international requirement due to its connection to the interests of the entire world, and the necessity of sparing it from any risks or threats that could affect regional and international security and peace, as well as global trade movement and the international economy.
