Houthis Call for Transitional Government in Yemen
RIMBO, Sweden (Dispatches) -- The main negotiator of Yemen’s Houthi movement called on Saturday for the formation of a transitional government with the participation of "all political parties”.
The Houthi negotiator, Muhammad Abdusalam, spoke to Reuters on the sidelines of peace talks underway in Sweden with the delegation of the Saudi-backed side. A survey said Yemen’s war and the ensuing economic collapse has left 15.9 million people, 53 percent of the population, facing "severe acute food insecurity” and famine was a danger if immediate action was not taken.
