Diplomatic Adviser to the President of the United Arab Emirates Dr. Anwar Gargash held talks with United Nation Special Envoy to Yemen Hans Grundberg in Abu Dhabi on Tuesday, reported the UAE’s state news agency WAM.

The officials discussed the latest developments in the Yemeni crisis and the efforts to establish favorable conditions for a ceasefire and progress toward a sustainable political solution, which will end the crisis and the humanitarian suffering of the Yemeni people.

Gargash underlined the UAE's support for the international efforts and Grundberg’s work to establish a permanent ceasefire and initiate serious dialogue to reach a sustainable political settlement to the Yemeni crisis, lauding the related efforts of Saudi Arabia.

He highlighted the UAE's solidarity with the Yemeni people, its support for all efforts to end the crisis, and its political and humanitarian repercussions.

Gargash expressed his appreciation for the UN's recent announcement regarding the finalized plan to unload the FSO Safer oil tanker off the coast of Yemen’s Hodeidah province.

He hailed the efforts of the UN and its Secretary-General, Antonio Guterres, as well as the contributions of the Coalition to Restore Legitimacy in Yemen and donor countries in facilitating the successful unloading of the floating oil storage, averting an environmental and humanitarian catastrophe.

Grundberg briefed his host on the latest developments in Yemen with international, regional, and local parties.
