Saudi ambassador to Yemen kicked out of peace negotiations in Oman

Activists on social media and media outlets belonging to the Saudi-led coalition have circulated news about the expulsion of the Saudi ambassador to Yemen, Ahmed Al Jaber, from ongoing talks in the Omani capital of Muscat.

“The Sana’a negotiating delegation refused the presence of the Saudi ambassador as a representative of Hadi’s government at the discussion table with the UN and US envoys during the ongoing talks in Muscat,” said Marwan Al-Ahmadi, a journalist affiliated with the Islah Party, in a tweet on Saturday.

Al-Ahmadi confirmed that the Saudi ambassador left the meeting hall after the Sana’a delegation refused to accept his presence.

He indicated that the Sana’a-based national Yemeni delegation imposed its conditions on the international community from a source of strength.
