On Saturday, Defense Minister Lieutenant General Mohsen Al-Daeri met separately with the Acting Chinese Ambassador to Yemen, Zhao Cheng, and the Japanese Military Attaché to Yemen, Soshiro Shimamura.
During the meeting, they discussed the latest developments in Yemen amid the continued targeting of commercial ships and international shipping routes in the Red Sea and the Gulf of Aden by the Houthi terrorist militias, and the harm this causes to the global economy and the threat it poses to international security and peace.
Lieutenant General Al-Daeri emphasized that stability in the region and ensuring freedom of maritime navigation can only be achieved by supporting the government and the armed forces to impose control over the entire national territory. He clarified that peace is not in the vocabulary of the Houthi terrorist militia, which is accustomed to breaking covenants and reneging on agreements.
