<p>Addressing the humanitarian crisis in Yemen is a key priority for the UK and we
continue to raise the issue in regular Ministerial-level conversations with our regional
and international partners. The Foreign Secretary raised the humanitarian situation
in his discussion with the Crown Prince of Saudi Arabia on 25 August</p><p>The UK
has also taken the lead in urging all parties to ensure rapid, safe and unhindered
humanitarian access. This call was repeated by the UN Security Council Presidential
Statement proposed and coordinated by the UK in June. This September at the UN General
Assembly I hosted a Ministerial-level meeting with Saudi Arabia, the UAE, the US and
UN Special Envoy for Yemen. All recognized the dire humanitarian situation and agreed
that more must be done to alleviate immediate need.</p>
