January 14 / Yamanyoon 

Foreign Minister Hisham Sharaf met on Saturday with the Resident Coordinator / Humanitarian Coordinator for Yemen, Jamie McGoldrick.

The meeting dealt with a number of issues relating to the activities of the UN offices working in the country and ways of enhancing and facilitating their performance to enable the providing of their services to Yemeni citizens.

Sharaf stressed the necessity of reopening Sana’a International Airport as a prerequisite for the success of any steps that could boost the political process and resume peace talks.

He reaffirmed that the Supreme Political Council and the National Salvation Government extend their hands of peace to maintain the sovereignty, dignity and rights of the Yemeni people and to be in line with the national constants.

On the other hand, McGoldrick confirmed the presence of all programs, organizations and offices of the United Nations on the field and their keenness to expand their activities.
