Houthis Arrive for Geneva Talks on Yemen Conflict

HeadlineJun 16, 2015

A delegation of Houthi rebels have arrived in Geneva for the second day of U.N.-backed peace talks on the conflict in Yemen. Seif al-Washli, an adviser to the delegation, said expectations for the talks are low.

Seif al-Washli: “Expectations for these meetings are not great. To this point, Saudi Arabia seems determined to continue this war and their desire to continue their aggression on Yemen, and there are no signs that it has any intentions to stop this aggression.”

We’ll have more on Yemen with Sharif Abdel Kouddous on the ground in the Yemeni capital Sana’a after headlines.
