Question to the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office:

To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs, what recent discussions he has had with aid partners in Yemen and other international counterparts on changes to the humanitarian situation in Yemen.

Yemen is one of the most serious humanitarian crises in the world. I regularly discuss the humanitarian situation in Yemen with a wide range of interlocutors including the UN, international partners, Government of Yemen and humanitarian organisations. I most recently discussed Yemen humanitarian issues on March 13 with the UN Special Envoy to Yemen, Ismail Ould Cheikh Ahmed and with the Kuwait Deputy Foreign Minister on March 16.
