SANAA, Feb. 9 (Saba) - Foreign Minister Hisham Sharaf Abdullah on Saturday stressed keenness to cooperate fully with the United Nations organizations, programs and offices operating in Yemen.

"While the national authorities in Sana'a are keen to provide all necessary support, cooperation and facilitation to the United Nations organizations, programs and offices operating in Sana'a, there are those who are trying again to exploit some of the positions to blame the national authorities through describing them as obstructionists," he told Saba in a statement.

He added that those forgot the fact that the policy of starvation and the total siege used by the aggressor countries and its mercenaries as a weapon of war against the Yemeni people is one of the forms of genocide against civilians in clear violation of all human rights treaties, as well the laws of war."

The Foreign Minister said that the statement issued by the the United Nations Under-Secretary-General for Humanitarian Affairs, Mark Lowcock ,on 7 February, which referred to the refusal of the authorities in Sanaa to grant permission to the United Nations to reach the Red Sea Mills, is not consistent with the facts on the ground reality.

He pointed out that the competent national authorities in Sanaa coordinated with the Office of the Humanitarian Coordinator and the Office of the World Food Program for the purpose of opening another safe passage for humanitarian workers at the United Nations and shipments of aid away from the areas of clashes in the area of ​​Kilo 16.

He indicated in this regard that Hiss area or any other path closer to the mills were proposed.

However, for unknown reasons, the WFP office has withdrew its previous agreement on what was proposed by the national authorities to find a safe passage beyond 16 kilometers.

Minister Sharaf pointed out that the full positive treatment by the authorities in Sana'a did not meet the same level or proposed other alternatives. Rather, this positive attitude was used politically to try to show the national authorities as an obstacle.

"In full view of the United Nations team in Hodeidah, the initiative of the authorities in Sanaa earlier was obstructed by a direct assault resulting in the killing of a member of the national team of experts," he said.

The Minister of Foreign Affairs called on the Under-Secretary-General for Humanitarian Affairs to investigate further information by the United Nations offices in Sana'a and to clarify the reasons behind the non-engagement positively in finding safe corridors that contribute to the delivery of food assistance to the citizens and to maintain the safety of the movement of workers in this area.

The Minister concluded his statement by inviting the Under-Secretary-General for Humanitarian Affairs to visit the province of Hodeidah and to take a closer look at the situation.
