Statement by Yemen at the Fifth Session of the Conference on the Establishment of a Middle East Zone Free of Nuclear Weapons and other WMD

Yemen stressed the urgent need for establishing a WMDFZ in the region. Achieving this goal requires halting interventions and sponsoring terrorist militias and instead redirecting resources toward sustainable development. Yemen called for full participation in the conference and condemned Israel’s violation of its sovereignty. It calls on Iran to stop the violations of the JCPOA, enforce the AP, and cooperate with the IAEA.
