Adviser to the Secretary-General of the United Nations and his envoy to Yemen, Jamal Benomar, described on Tuesday results of his recent visit to Yemen as successful. Upon departing Sana'a, Benomar said in a statement to Saba that he would submit a report to the UN Security Council on April 24 on his evaluation of the progress in the political process in Yemen.
He pointed out that the report would include the extent of compliance with the Security Council's resolutions and the steps that have been taken in this regard, as well as the efforts being made to begin drafting the Constitution.
The report would also deal with the security and economic situation and the challenges and the steps that should be taken by the government, donors and the international community, Benomar added.
Benomar said that he had sensed during his recent visit to Riyadh that the Saudi Arabia is ready to continue to support the political process in Yemen and the experience of the peaceful transition, which he described as a unique of its kind in the region.
The UN envoy revealed the high-level arrangements for the Friends of Yemen meeting to be held in London later this month.
He confirmed that the meeting of the UN General Assembly to be held in New York in September would direct a message of solidarity and support for the efforts of President Abdo Rabbo Mansour Hadi and the political process in support of Yemen in the economic, social and humanitarian areas.
