 The Yemeni-Yemeni consultations under the auspices of the Gulf Cooperation Council launched in the Saudi capital, Riyadh, on Wednesday, while the United Nations welcomed the announcement of the Arab coalition to stop military operations in Yemen.

The Secretary-General of the Gulf Cooperation Council, Nayef Al-Hajraf, said in an opening speech that the Yemeni consultations "represent a platform for the people of Yemen to diagnose the reality, understand its difficulties, extrapolate the future, crystallize its challenges, and take practical steps to move Yemen from war and its horrors to a state of peace."

Al-Hajraf stated that the consultations will include 6 axes: "military, political, humanitarian, economic, administrative reform and social recovery."

He stressed that "there is no solution except what the people of Yemen decide, and there is no future except what the people of Yemen decide," and stressed that "the solution is Yemeni and for the sake of Yemen."

He added that "the efforts of the international community through its envoys constitute international support to end the conflict in Yemen through Security Council resolutions, and support everything that would achieve security and stability."

The Secretary-General of the Gulf Cooperation Council considered it a "historic opportunity to build upon and maintain the international community's interest in the Yemen file until the war ends and the battle of construction and reconstruction begins."
