Joe Biden praised the leadership role of Oman

Muscat: The United States on Friday welcomed the United Nations mediated truce in Yemen, with president Joe Biden saying that the initiative is a long-awaited reprieve for the people of the country.

I welcome the announcement today of a two-month truce in the Yemen conflict. This initiative is a long-awaited reprieve for the Yemeni people. It entails a halt to all military activities by any party inside Yemen and across its borders, the entry of fuel ships into Hudaydah port, and the renewal of commercial flights to and from Sana’a to agreed destinations, Biden said.

These are important steps but they are not enough, he said.

The ceasefire must be adhered to, and as I have said before, it is imperative that we end this war. After seven years of conflict, negotiators must undertake the hard and necessary work to reach political compromises that can bring about an enduring future of peace for all the people of Yemen, he noted.

The US President also praised the leadership role of Saudi Arabia and Oman in brining this initiative to fruition before the holy month of Ramadan.

I am also grateful for the hard work of the Yemeni government and the confidence they have placed in UN-Led mediation, he said.
