United Nations condemn Saudi and UAE attempts to include Ansarullah on US sanctions list

US media revealed on Thursday that the United Nations had objected to Emirati-Saudi efforts to reclassify Ansarullah in Yemen on the US sanctions list.

Foreign Policy magazine stated in a report that international organizations informed US President Joe Biden’s administration of their rejection of any step in this direction.

The organisations considered that the reclassification would harm millions of Yemenis living in the north of Yemen and would represent a push towards starvation.

The International Crisis Group also mentioned the repercussions of the decision, which may affect the movement of international organisations and commercial banks, and limit the flow of food and goods.
