UN Chief Calls for Pressure on Saudis to End 'Stupid' Yemen War

UN Secretary General Antonio Guterres
UN Secretary General Antonio Guterres said on Sunday that the Yemen war is causing terrible suffering to the Yemeni people and called for a renewed push to end the "stupid war", there.


"I believe this is a stupid war. I think this war is against the interests of Saudi Arabia and the Emirates... (and) of the people of Yemen," he said on CNN.

"What we need is a political solution."

Guterres said he hoped a Saudi blockade of Yemen's ports, would be lifted.

"This war is causing, in my opinion, terrible suffering to the Yemeni people," while also harming Saudi Arabia and the Emirates, he added.

"It's in the interests of everybody to stop this war."
