United Nations – Saudi Crown Prince
Mohammed bin Salman and U.N. Secretary-General
Antonio Guterres have met to discuss
Yemen as a war between a Saudi-led military coalition and Yemen's
Houthi rebels enters its third year.
Saudi Foreign Minister Adel al-Jubeir says the prince and the U.N. leader "had a very productive and comprehensive meeting" Tuesday.
Prince Mohammed delivered a previously pledged $930 million Saudi and Emirati contribution to humanitarian efforts in Yemen.
The U.N. says the men discussed protecting civilians, allowing humanitarian access, keeping ports open and working toward a political settlement. Al-Jubeir says they talked about avoiding foreign intervention in Yemen, particularly from Iran.
Western countries and U.N. researchers have accused Iran of supplying arms to the Houthis. Iran denies it.
