WASHINGTON: Iran’s foreign minister submitted on Friday a letter to UN Secretary General Ban Ki-moon, outlining a four-point peace plan for Yemen.
The plan, which Foreign Minister Javad Zarif announced in Pakistan earlier this month, calls for an immediate ceasefire and end of all foreign military attacks, humanitarian assistance, a resumption of broad national dialogue and “establishment of an inclusive national unity government”.
“It is imperative for the international community to get more effectively involved in ending the senseless aerial attacks and establishing a ceasefire, ensuring delivery of humanitarian and medical assistance to the people of Yemen and restoring peace and stability to this country through dialogue and national reconciliation without preconditions,” said Mr Zarif’s letter, which was obtained by Reuters.
