France reaffirms support for
President Hadi after intervention in Yemen
France on Thursday firmly condemned the action of de-stabilisation by
Houthi-led rebels in Yemen and expressed once again its support for the
legitimate Yemen government under President Abd Rabbu Mansour Hadi, a
Foreign Ministry statement said.
France also called on all supporters of the Houthi rebels to stop this support and return to political dialogue.
The
Foreign Ministry statement followed the intervention by a broad Arab
coalition, supported by other nations, including Turkey, to support
President Hadi and to combat the Houthi rebellion that has taken place
in the north of Yemen but is threatening also many areas in the south.
"Military
operations were carried out during the night by several countries in
the region in response to a request from the legitimate authorities in
Yemen," Paris said.
"France reaffirms its support to the government of Yemen and to President Hadi," it added.
The
Foreign Ministry here also said that France "firmly condemns the
destabilisation actions carried out by the Houthi rebellion and calls on
those that are supporting it to dissociate themselves from it
immediately and come back to the political process."
Paris expressed ongoing concern about the situation created by the
Houthi rebellion and expressed solidarity with all in the region who are
seeking to end the ongoing instability.
"Faced with this worrying
situation, France stands by the side of its partners in the region in
order to restore stability and unity in Yemen," the Foreign Ministry
said.
