Chairman of the new Yemeni Presidential Leadership Council (PLC), Rashad al-Alimi, underlined the importance of international pressure to make the Iran-backed Houthi militias commit to the two-month truce.
Alimi received a telephone call on Thursday from US Secretary of State Antony Blinken, who congratulated him on his new position. He welcomed the gathering in Aden this week of the Council, government, parliament, and Shura Council.
