Ministry of Foreign Affairs Condemns UN Envoy's Statement on Issuing New Currency
Sana'a - Saba: The Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Expatriates has condemned the statement issued by the UN Secretary-General's Special Envoy to Yemen regarding the issuance of new currency. In a statement received by the Yemeni News Agency (SABA), the Ministry of Foreign Affairs affirmed that the UN envoy's statement once again demonstrates his absolute bias toward the countries of aggression and their mercenaries, and his departure from the neutral role entrusted to him as a mediator. The statement explained that the Central Bank in Sana'a issued the new currency based on a financial and professional study, considering it a replacement for damaged banknotes, without causing any monetary or economic consequences. It noted that this emergency decision came after negotiations led by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs on this matter reached a dead end due to the obstinacy, stalling, and lack of seriousness by the countries of aggression and the mercenary government — even after ten years of daily suffering endured by the Yemeni people due to the use of the old currency. The statement added that Sana'a had agreed to the proposal to form a joint economic committee to manage national resources and deposit revenues into a special account designated for salary payments. This initiative could have resolved all related issues; however, the committee never materialized due to the other party's lack of cooperation. Yet, the UN envoy did not express concern over this matter. The Ministry stressed that the UN envoy's recent statement is unacceptable, as it aligns with those issued by some of the aggressor countries, notably the United States, the United Kingdom, and France. The envoy was reminded that the countries of aggression and their mercenaries launched a fierce economic war on Yemen alongside their military campaign, taking numerous unilateral economic measures that harmed the Yemeni people — including the printing of billions in unbacked currency and other actions that should have been the focus of criticism by the UN envoy. The Ministry of Foreign Affairs emphasized that Sana'a's efforts to alleviate the suffering of the Yemeni people should be acknowledged and appreciated. It affirmed that the time has come to end the aggression and blockade imposed on the Yemeni people, ease their suffering, and allow them to live in peace.

Yemen's Gov't Condemns Iranian Interference After Seizure of Arms Shipment, Urges International Action
Aden, July 19, 2025 — The Government of Yemen has strongly condemned Iran's continued interference in its internal affairs following the interception of a massive Iranian weapons shipment allegedly destined for the Houthi militia. The shipment, seized by the Yemeni National Resistance Forces in the Red Sea, included over 750 tons of advanced munitions, including cruise missiles, drone engines, radar systems, and air defense equipment. In an official statement, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs described the incident as a 'flagrant violation' of international law and United Nations Security Council resolutions. The ministry accused Tehran of attempting to destabilize Yemen and prolong the suffering of its people by arming what it called a 'terrorist proxy militia'. 'The Iranian regime continues to defy international norms by funneling weapons into Yemen, threatening regional peace and maritime security,' the statement read. 'We call on the international community, particularly the Security Council, to take firm and immediate measures to deter Iran's destabilizing activities.' The Yemeni government emphasized that the seizure of the shipment—reportedly the largest of its kind—demonstrates Iran's deepening involvement in the conflict and its efforts to turn Yemen into a launchpad for regional aggression. General Michael Erik Kurilla, commander of U.S. Central Command, praised the Yemeni forces for their role in the operation, stating that 'Iran remains the most destabilizing actor in the region' and that curbing its support to the Houthis is critical for regional stability. The government's call for international action comes amid renewed Houthi attacks on commercial vessels in the Red Sea and growing concerns over Iran's proxy network across the Middle East.
