Moussa gets a message from Yemeni counterpart

Egyptian Foreign Minister Amr Moussa on Tuesday in Cairo received a message from his Yemeni counterpart, Abdul Qader Bajmal, pertaining to developments in the African Horn, the Middle East peace process and bilateral relations.

The message was conveyed by Yemeni Deputy Foreign Minister Abdullah al-Saedi who met with Moussa on Tuesday in Cairo.

Following the meeting with Moussa, the Yemeni official said the situation in the African Horn was on the forefront of topics discussed, besides the Israeli aggressions against Lebanon and latest developments concerning the Middle East peace process.

The message said the situation in the African Horn area concerns Egypt and Yemen, and it affects the security and stability of the Red Sea, as Egypt is located on the Red Sea's straits from north in the Suez Canal, and Yemen is located on the Red Sea's entries in the southern Bab Mandab strait.

The Yemeni official reiterated his country's denunciation of the Israeli attacks against Lebanon, adding that Yemen and Egypt called on the international community and the Middle East peace process cosponsors to rapidly interfere to halt the Israeli aggression.
