NEW YORK – The United Nations welcomed an initiative presented by the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) to solve conflict in Yemen in the coming weeks, the international body said on Saturday.
“I can tell you that the UN appreciates all initiatives to reach an inclusive negotiated political settlement to the conflict in Yemen,” said Spokesman for the United Nations Secretary-General, Stephane Dujarric.
“In that context, we welcome the Gulf Cooperation Council’s initiative to hold consultations among the parties to the conflict in Yemen in the coming weeks in support of the UN’s own efforts,” he added.
