Saudi Arabia strongly condemned on Tuesday the storming of the Mashiq presidential palace by protesters in the Yemeni interim capital Aden.

Riyadh underscored its support to the new Yemeni government that had kicked off its duties in Aden on December 30. The government was formed through the Riyadh Agreement.

The Kingdom called on the parties of the agreement to urgently meet in Riyadh to continue the implementation of the pact.

Its implementation ensures that the various parties in Yemen will be united, which will help end the bloodshed and mend the rift between them, it added. This in turn will help the war-torn country continue its mission to restore its state, security and stability and support efforts to reach a comprehensive political solution to its crisis.
