SANAA (Dispatches) -- Yemeni authorities have held “constructive talks” with the representatives of the EU to ensure the safety of shipping in the Red Sea, Deputy Foreign Minister Hussein al-Ezzi said Wednesday.

His country has ensured EU authorities during bilateral talks that the Red Sea is safe for international transit. “We once again reiterate that the Red Sea is absolutely safe. Only passage to ships linked to three parties, namely the US, Israel and Britain, are blocked,” he said.
