	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 09/11/2021 answer text <p>We condemn the Houthis' escalation of violence around Marib and Shabwa, which is worsening the humanitarian crisis, and their intensifying of cross-border attacks on Saudi Arabia. On 20 October the UK supported a UN Security Council Press Statement calling for an immediate end to the Houthi escalation in Marib. The Foreign Secretary also raised Yemen with Saudi counterparts on her visit to Riyadh on 20 October. We fully support the Yemen peace process led by the UN Special Envoy Hans Grundberg. An inclusive political settlement is the only way to bring long-term stability and security to Yemen and end the humanitarian suffering. We urge the parties to engage constructively with this process.</p> answering member constituency Braintree answering member printed James Cleverly question first answered 09/11/2021 18:09:00 answering member 4366 label Biography information for James Cleverly

	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 03/02/2024 answer text <p>The UK is deeply concerned by the humanitarian situation in Yemen, which remains dire despite the truce-like conditions since April 2022. This de facto truce offers the most significant opportunity for peace in Yemen in years. We welcome the conclusion of the Saudi-Houthi talks and the formal launch of the UN-led Roadmap by the UN Special Envoy to Yemen, Hans Grundberg, on 23 December 2023. This transition to an intra-Yemeni peace process under UN auspices has been reached following years of HMG's diplomatic support.</p><p>What the Houthis are doing in the Red Sea is unacceptable, illegal and threatening freedom of navigation. Their reckless actions are putting innocent lives at risk, reducing the flow of humanitarian aid to those who need it most in Yemen, threatening the global economy, and destabilising the region.</p><p>We are using every diplomatic lever at our disposal to pressure the Houthis to desist. It is in all our interests to work together to de-escalate tensions.</p> answering member constituency Macclesfield answering member printed David Rutley question first answered 03/02/2024 12:40:13 answering member 4033 label Biography information for David Rutley
