Yemen's Ansarallah: Talks with Saudi Arabia continue
According to the Yemeni Ansarullah movement, negotiations with Saudi Arabia are continuing and the Omani mediator is making great efforts to advance them. Ali al-Qahum, a member of the Yemeni Ansarullah movement's political bureau, told Al-Mayadeen Friday night that the suspension of talks with Saudi Arabia was due to humanitarian issues such as the reopening of airports and seaports and the payment of salaries to Yemeni workers may be. It is Saudi Arabia that is leading the attacks on Yemen and it is time to smooth the ground for peace, al-Qahum added. In this regard, Abdul Qadir al-Mortaza, the head of the Prisoners' Committee of Yemen's National Salvation Government, announced last week that mercenaries were creating obstacles in the implementation of the agreement to exchange 1,400 prisoners, adding that they were still discussing the issue of the prisoner Abusing prisoner exchange and not taking it seriously.
He said a month ago, Sana and the Saudi-led coalition came close to an agreement to exchange 1,400 prisoners, but the mercenaries prevented it at a crucial moment. So far, around 900 prisoners have been exchanged between the conflicting parties in Yemen. Talks between the government of Sana'a and the resigning government of Yemen on prisoner exchanges have been held in Oman for the last month, but ended inconclusively. On March 26, 2015, the Saudi-led war coalition launched massive attacks on Yemen with the intention of restoring the resigned Yemeni government to power. But these countries did not achieve their goals after seven years and had to accept a ceasefire.
