Pres. Hadi represents legitimacy in Yemen - UN envoy

SANAA, Feb 26 (KUNA) -- UN envoy to Yemen Jamal Benomar on Thursday stressed that President Abd-Rabbu Mansour Hadi represents legitimacy in the country.
Benomar made the statement to reporters after a meeting with Hadi in Aden. He said he had congratulated the President on his safe arrival in the southern city from Sanaa.
He added that he will choose another venue for the coming round of dialogue among the Yemeni political stakeholders outside Sanaa in line with a UNSC statement on Wednesday, after the capital was controlled by the Houthis earlier.
Only yesterday, the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) Secretary General Abdullatif Al-Zayani met with Hadi in Aden where he confirmed the bloc's support to him as the legitimate President. (end) az.msa
