Transport Minister, Abdulwahab Al-Durra, stressed the importance of the UN playing its role in solving the problem of the Safer reservoir, according to the previously concluded agreement in this regard.
The Minister of Transport indicated during his meeting, Monday, with the Humanitarian Coordinator in Yemen, William David Gressly that the UN should feel responsible for the Safer tank issue and the speed of maintenance of the ship, as it threatens the environment in the Red Sea.
He explained that the humanitarian truce was satisfied by Yemeni society despite the obstruction of US-Saudi and its repudiation of implementing its terms, especially with regard to commercial flights.
He renewed his demand for the UN to operate daily flights from Sana’a to Amman and Cairo and return due to the high turnout of travelers, especially patients, pointing out that no flight has been operated from Sana’a to Cairo and back to this day despite the promises of the UN envoy’s office.
He indicated that Sana’a International Airport proved its technical and professional operational readiness when it received the two flights from Amman to Sana’a in accordance with international requirements.
He called on the UN to pressure the US-Saudi aggression to abide by the Stockholm Agreement and to allow commercial cargo container ships to enter and unload at the port of Hodeidah.
The Humanitarian Coordinator in Yemen pointed out the importance of working to alleviate the suffering of the Yemeni people and stop the war so that peace prevails in Yemen.
He indicated that the UN is showing great interest in the Safer reservoir, noting that work on this issue is being carried out with the aim of preventing any disaster threatening the Red Sea.
