RIYADH (Debriefer)--Saudi Arabia announced on Friday that it has brokered a new agreement between Yemen's internationally recognised government and the southern transitional council.
The UAE-backed council is participating in the new government which was formed in December in accordance with the Riyadh agreement.
But the relation between the partners in the government has been marred by mistrust and violence.
The new agreement included a mechanism to stop all political, military, security, economic, social and media escalation by both sides, it said in a statement carried by the Saudi press agency reported.
The latest political and media escalation by the council, including appointments of military chiefs, was against the latest agreement, it said, calling on the two sides to put the interest of the Yemeni people above anything else and abide by what they have agreed to.
The return of the government to Aden is a top priority, it said, reiterating its full support to the government.
