An agreement between the Yemeni government in Sanaa and the Saudi regime has been reached, confirmed Jalal al-Ruwaishan, deputy head of the Sanaa negotiating delegation, pointing out that its implementation is contingent on the Saudi side's commitment to the deal.

Al-Ruwaishan told Al Mayadeen that Sanaa views "positive" the completion of the agreement but clarified that the announcement is "just media talk so far," as the Sanaa International Airport remains closed, the blockade on Yemen persists, and the measures against Yemeni banks are still in place.

He stressed that "we cannot speak of a positive agreement unless what has been agreed upon is implemented on the ground," adding that "the ball is now in the Saudi court."

Regarding the Yemeni position supporting the Palestinian Resistance in the Gaza Strip, al-Ruwaishan affirmed that the people, leadership, and armed forces in Yemen are determined to maintain their declared stance.

The Yemeni official told Al Mayadeen that all measures taken in an attempt to obstruct Yemen's position against the Israeli aggression on the Gaza Strip have failed.

He added that Riyadh "realized belatedly" that all pressures exerted against Sanaa are ineffective with the Yemeni people.

Al-Ruwaishan indicated that the Yemeni stance is based on religious, national, moral, and humanitarian grounds.

Time is not in Saudi Arabia's favor

Meanwhile, Mohammad Muftah, an advisor to the President of the Supreme Political Council in Yemen, told Al Mayadeen that the firm commitment of Sayyed Abdul Malik al-Houthi to his positions, along with popular support for his decisions, made Saudi Arabia, which imposed hostile measures against Yemen, "seek a way out of its predicament."

Muftah expressed "hope that Saudi Arabia is serious about implementing the agreement and commencing the steps that have been directly announced."

He continued, "We hope that the Saudi regime has learned the lesson well and that time is not in its favor."

The Saudi Ministry of Foreign Affairs welcomed Tuesday's announcement by the UN envoy to Yemen, Hans Grundberg, regarding an agreement between the Sanaa government and the Saudi-appointed Yemeni Presidential Council to de-escalate tensions related to the banking sector and Yemenia Airways.

Riyadh claimed its "continuous support for Yemen, its government, and its people" and its commitment to de-escalation and maintaining calm, expressing hope that the agreement will contribute to bringing the Yemeni parties to the negotiating table under the auspices of the United Nations.
