RIYADH — Yemeni Prime Minister Maeen Abdulmalik Saeed said that the blatant interference of Iran and Qatar in the internal affairs of Yemen continues to be exposed. “Iran seeks to implement its destructive scheme through its tools in the region such as Qatar and the Houthi militia in Yemen,” he said.

In an exclusive interview with Okaz/Saudi Gazette, Saeed said that Qatar has left the Arab ranks and is treading a path employing subversive plans to target Yemen as well as the Arab Coalition’s efforts. Qatar is also extending its political, financial and media support for the Houthi coup militia,” he noted.

The Yemeni leader affirmed that his country’s relationship with the Saudi-led Arab Coalition is that of a common destiny that seeks to preserve the security and stability of the region in the face of Iran’s plans to inflame the region with sectarianism as well as to extend its political and military control over Arab countries.

“The brotherly relations and common interests have required a great deal of coordination at various levels. There are many pieces of evidence for the support and coordination between the Yemeni government and the Coalition to Support Legitimacy in Yemen under the leadership of Saudi Arabia,” he said while highlighting the great efforts made by the Kingdom to bring together various parties to sign the Riyadh Agreement.

Saeed lauded the Kingdom’s commitment to supporting the Yemeni government under the leadership of President Abd Rabbo Mansour Hadi, as well as its efforts to restore the legitimacy of the state and put an end to the coup.

“The Kingdom is a source of pride for the Yemeni government and people, and its positions are honest and concrete on the ground in terms of the policies and practices of various official and informal agencies in the Kingdom toward Yemen,” he added.
