The government's ongoing efforts to manage the tough economic hardships were prominently figured during the talks.
The Minister underscored the formidable challenges facing the public finance due to the cessation of oil exports for one year and half, given that crude oil exports make up some 65% to 70% of the state's general budget resources.
Houthi militias' reckless unilateral monetary measures and military escalation in the Red Sea were also touched upon.
The EU diplomatic mission and Ambassadors reiterated support for Yemen, the government's efforts to manage the economic hardships as well as the regional and international efforts to achieve comprehensive and permanent peace in Yemen.
