“My country calls upon the Security Council and international community to take the necessary measures to compel the Houthi militia to adopt the path of peace and support the efforts of the United Nations to reach a political solution on the basis of the three terms of reference – the Gulf Cooperation Council Initiative, the outputs of the Comprehensive National Dialogue Conference and the relevant resolutions of the Security Council, particularly resolution 2216 (2015) – and spare the Yemeni people, especially children, further suffering.”

“Their rejection of peace initiatives and escalation of the conflict against civilians, most recently in Marib, clearly illustrates the violent ideology of this militia and demonstrate its lust for power and lack of concern that their coup against legitimacy and the Yemeni people has drained the country of resources and plunged its people into chaos, hunger and disease. It also demonstrates the negative role played by Iran in the region, imposing its expansionist policy without concern for the destruction visited upon the children of the countries in which it has intervened.”

“We look forward to continuing the proactive cooperation between her and the Coalition with a view to developing the mechanisms for the protection of children in the armed conflict in Yemen. The report of the Secretary-General on children and armed conflict ( A/75/873- S/2021/437) confirms once again the destructive role of the Iranian-backed Houthi militia, providing yet more evidence of their unwillingness to end the conflict in Yemen and of the atrocities committed by them against children.”

“Notwithstanding our reservations about the number of incidents attributed to the Coalition, we note that the conclusions of the Secretary-General’s report give the lie to tendentious claims advanced by certain bodies in an attempt to distort the true image of the Coalition for political purposes that have nothing to do with the protection of children but instead use lies to create a hypothetical reality to divert attention from the genuinely constructive role of the Coalition in Yemen. In this context, we affirm once more our support for the mandate of the U nited Nations Special Representative for Children and Armed Conflict, Virginia Gamba, and her positive role in protecting children at international level.”

“My country has acceded to numerous international frameworks in support of this goal. The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia welcomes the report of the Secretary-General on children and armed conflict, which highlights the commitment of the Coalition to Support Legitimacy in Yemen to protecting children and the effectiveness of the significant and sustained measures it has taken to promote the protection of children in the current conflict in accordance with international terms of reference. The report also reflects the potential of the Coalition to provide a model for other international coalitions for protecting children in armed conflict.”

“The issue of the protection of children in armed conflict is of vital importance to the concept of peacebuilding and the creation of generations able to build a more stable and prosperous future for countries affected by conflict. The international community must handle children caught up in armed conflict with the utmost care, enabling a new reality to be created for them that will break the cycle of violence, address the negative effects of conflict and act upon any signs that an envir onment conducive to extremism and violence is being created. The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia believes that protection of children in armed conflict around the world is a joint responsibility of the entire international community, requiring a collective and coordinated response to deal with the repercussions and address the causes.”
