Saudi Arabia to host ‘dialogue’ between southern Yemeni factions

RIYADH: Saudi Arabia’s foreign ministry has invited factions in south Yemen to hold a dialogue in Riyadh to “discuss just solutions to the southern cause.” The ministry statement said the conference in the Saudi capital had been requested by Rashad Al-Alimi, President of the Yemeni Presidential Leadership Council, and the Kingdom urged all factions to participate “to develop a comprehensive vision” that would fulfill the aspirations of the southern people. The separatist Southern Transitional Council has recently seized territory in the governorates of Hadramaut and Al-Mahra.
