In a post on his Twitter account on Friday, Zarif pointed to his April 2015
tweet, in which he had said, "War on Yemen must be stopped. We urge ceasefire,
humanitarian assistance, intra-Yemeni dialogue & establishment of broad-based
government.”
"I said this on the crisis in Yemen in April 2015. Today, after untold human
suffering & war crimes by the Saudi coalition & its US accomplices, & efforts to
whitewash their crimes with absurd allegations against Iran, our four-point plan
still remains the only viable option,” he tweeted on Friday.
The comment came as Yemen’s defenseless people have been under massive attacks
by the coalition for more than three-and-a-half years but Riyadh has reached
none of its objectives in Yemen so far.
Since March 2015, Saudi Arabia and some of its Arab allies have been carrying
out deadly airstrikes against the Houthi Ansarullah movement in an attempt to
restore power to fugitive former president Abd Rabbuh Mansour Hadi, a close ally
of Riyadh.
The Yemeni Ministry of Human Rights announced in a statement on March 25 that
the war had left 600,000 civilians dead and injured until then. The war and the
accompanying blockade have also caused famine across Yemen.
