Crown Prince of Abu Dhabi and Deputy Supreme Commander of UAE Armed Forces Sheikh Mohammed bin Zayed Al Nahyan offered his condolences to Ahmed Ali on the death of his father, Yemen president Ali Abdullah Saleh.

While visiting Ahmed Ali Saleh at his residence in Abu Dhabi, Sheikh Mohamed bin Zayed expressed his heartfelt condolences to the family of the deceased and Yemeni people, praying to Allah to spread safety and security in Yemen.

Also offering condolences along with Sheikh Mohamed were Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of the Interior Lt. General Sheikh Saif bin Zayed Al Nahyan, Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Presidential Affairs Sheikh Mansour bin Zayed Al Nahyan, Deputy Secretary-General of the Supreme National Security Council Ali bin Hammad al-Shamsi, and Under-Secretary of the Abu Dhabi Crown Prince’s Court Mohamed Mubarak al-Mazrouei.

Ahmed Ali, 45, a former commander of Yemen’s elite Republican Guards, served as Yemen’s ambassador to UAE in 2012.

During his father's eulogy, Ahmed said that the president died in his house while fighting carrying his weapon.

He vowed to confront enemies of the homeland who were responsible for killing his father and "are trying to obliterate its identity and its gains and to humiliate Yemen and Yemenis”.

Saudi Arabia emphasized peaceful international cooperation as a means to achieve global prosperity, stability and security, stressing the importance of the Treaty on the Non-Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons and the necessity of its full implementation.

Ambassador Abdul Mohsen bin Khothaila, the Permanent Saudi Representative to the United Nations and international organizations in Geneva, participated in the second session of the Preparatory Committee for the Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT) Review Conference.

The ambassador called for more effective international efforts to achieve the goals and universality of the NPT, urging non-party states to join the treaty and subject all their nuclear facilities to the comprehensive safeguards of the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA).

Affirming the right to the peaceful use of nuclear technology under Article 4 of the Treaty, he underlined the importance of adhering to the highest standards of transparency and reliability, calling on all parties to cooperate to promote peaceful use for the benefit of global development and well-being.

He stated that the responsibility for making the Middle East a nuclear-weapon-free zone lies with the international community, especially the sponsors of the 1995 resolution on the Middle East.

Bin Khothaila condemned the recent statements and threats made by a member of the Israeli government regarding the use of nuclear weapons against the Palestinians, describing his words as violations of international law and a threat to global peace and security.

He further called for intensifying cooperation between the parties to the NPT to attain positive results at the next “review conference” in 2026, with the aim of achieving a safe world free of nuclear weapons.
