Proceeding contribution from Lord Hague of Richmond (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 26 April 2011. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Middle East and North Africa.
Middle East and North Africa
We have made those representations all the time. I went to Yemen and saw President Saleh at the beginning of February to urge him to come to an agreement with the opposition parties, which he seems to have done in the past 24 hours, thanks to the mediation of the GCC countries, so we have been very heavily involved in that. Our ambassador in Sana'a has been particularly heavily involved on a daily basis for many weeks with both the Government there and the opposition, and the British Government have been heavily involved.
