The Speaker of the Iranian Parliament, Mohammad Bajar Ghalibaf, on the dispute between the Houthis in Yemen and Saudi Arabia:
"Today it is a popular movement - everyone saw it, and you saw how the people there stood. In fact, today they are the government of Yemen, and the Yemen issue with Saudi Arabia is, in any case, facing a challenge and conflicts; They also have historical disputes from the past.
If there is a problem between Yemen and Yemen itself, then the Yemenis conduct their own discussions and pursue them. But today, the problem is that the Yemeni government - that is, Ansar Allah - which is in Sana'a and represents the people of Yemen, faces challenges against the Saudi government.
Naturally, the Saudi government should sit down with them today and discuss their issues. They had already held talks once and reached an agreement, but in any case, this agreement did not materialize, and now they imposed a sea, air and land blockade on them. ".
