The Yemenis kickstarted a marathon of consultations that included most of the war-torn country’s parties, components, and personalities, amid Yemeni, regional, and international optimism. Talks sought drafting a roadmap that would move Yemen from the state of war to peace.
While diplomats and officials affirmed that holding intra-Yemeni consultations is a positive step in the right direction towards achieving comprehensive peace in the country, participants at the talks considered the Gulf invitation as an opportunity reflecting the interests of Yemen that should not be neglected.
