Arab Parliament team hails UAE, coalition forces

The Arab Parliament has put its full weight behind the people of Yemen to restore the country's legitimacy and end the Houthi and the Ali Saleh group rebellion.

While heading a high-profile Arab Parliament delegation in Aden, Arab Parliament Speaker Ahmed bin Mohammed Al Jarwan said: "This visit comes amid the winning streak in the battlefields to offer our congratulations to the people of Yemen, the local authority and the resistance in Aden, on their achievements in the light of backing of the Arab coalition-led by Saudi Arabia."

He noted that the Arab Parliament supports all positive trends that meet the interests of Yemen.

He commended the roles of the armed forces of the UAE, Saudi Arabia and other coalition members on supporting the brothers in Yemen.

"The security of Yemen is part and parcel of the Arab national security, and deserves our sacrifice. We have to defend the people of Yemen because they are our brothers, children and cousins," he said.

While meeting with the delegation, Governor of Aden, Major General Mohammed Saad, thanked the coalition for its valuable and unlimited support to end the rebellion, citing the role of the UAE in all fields, especially the role of the Emirates Red Crescent (ERC), which provides health, water, sewerage, electricity, education and other services.

Al Jarwan underlined that the Arab coalition's support to Yemen reflects the depth and strength of inter-Arab relations. "We are looking forward to forming the joint Arab Defence Force," he added.

He noted that Aden is now safer and stable in the light of increasing support from Emiratis, ERC and the King Salman Centre for Relief and Humanitarian Aid, with the relief aid reaching each house in Aden.
