"The Houthis have yet accepted to withdraw from the Hodeidah and its ports," Al-Yamani said during a joint press conference with the Jordanian Foreign Minister Ayman Safadi in Amman. The Houthi militia had agreed to withdraw from Hodeidah and hand over the port to the United Nations after UN-sponsored peace talks in Sweden concluded on Dec. 18, 2018. However late last month, the UN cast doubt on the claims by the Houthis to have withdrawn from the port of Hodeidah, saying such steps can only be credible if all other parties can verify them. The Jordanian foreign minister also stressed the need to implement the Sweden agreement to end the crisis. "We support all efforts to resolve the Yemen crisis and end the suffering of the Yemeni people," Safadi said.
