<p>We are aware of reports that the United Arab Emirates has begun withdrawing its
forces from Hodeidah and welcome all efforts to de-escalate the conflict in Yemen.
We call on the Yemeni parties to cooperate with the UN to implement the Hodeidah Agreement
and work towards a resolution of this brutal conflict.</p><p>We have been clear that
a political settlement is the only lasting solution to the Yemen conflict. It is crucial
that all parties implement agreements made in Stockholm and continue to engage with
UN Special Envoy Martin Griffiths and the UN-led political process. During the meeting
of the Yemen Quad on 22 June, representatives of the UK, US, Saudi Arabia and the
United Arab Emirates reiterated their support for UN Special Envoy Martin Griffiths
and the peace process.</p>
