The United Nations Special Envoy for Yemen Hans Grundberg met with Iran’s Foreign Minister Hossein Amir-Abdollahian on Sunday evening.

During the meeting, they discussed regional developments, with Yemen being the top issue.

The Iranian minister of foreign affairs stressed that Yemen’s territorial integrity and unity should be protected.

“Unfortunately, some want to disintegrate Yemen and some countries are talking about carving up the country into two or three countries. We consider Yemen’s territorial integrity as a must,” Amir-Abdollahian said, stating, “Yemen belongs to all Yemenis.”

The Iranian foreign minister also talked about the developments in Palestine and Gaza, saying “Hamas is a Palestinian liberation movement. They acted within the framework of legitimate defense to reclaim the occupied territories.”

For his part, Grundberg presented a report on the measures taken by the UN to establish peace and calm in Yemen and reduce tensions in the country.
