Question to the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office:
To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs, what discussions he has had with his Yemeni counterpart on the current conflict in that country since 7 May 2015.
I last spoke to President Hadi on 7 July to underline UK support for a Yemeni-led and UN brokered solution to the conflict. Sir Alan Duncan, the UK’s Special Envoy to Yemen, spoke to Vice President Bahah on 10 July. We remain fully committed seeking a political solution to the current crisis in Yemen and supporting efforts towards improving the dire humanitarian situation.
