Sana'a (Debriefer) - A member of the Houthi Supreme Political Council on Thursday criticized the UN special envoy to Yemen for his briefing to the Security Council on efforts aimed at political solution in the war-torn country.
Envoy Martin Griffiths described the war as interior issue and failed to mention the Arab coalition's involvement, Mohamed Ali al-Houthi added.
Like conflicts around the world, warring parties have to be the solution authors, if they want an applicable solution and want sustainable peace, Griffiths told the UNSC.
For al-Houthi, the "envoy didn't lie here, but he didn't tell the truth in describing the issue as internal and keeping silent at the aggressor countries officially participating" in the war.
"We presented every solution," the Houthi official said. "We need a solution, but not occupation."
In his briefing, the UN envoy said Yemen was not an exception from that rule. The ongoing conflict is between two Yemeni parties, and serious commitments well-thought-out by their leaders can only end the conflict.
It is time for the two parties to make final decisions needed for the joint declaration negotiations to yield fruits, Griffiths added.
