Alimi made a written statement on the eve of the 33rd anniversary of the unification of North and South Yemen.
 
Alimi regarding the unification of North and South Yemen on 22 May 1990, "We gather every year to remember the importance of this unforgettable day," he said.
 
Referring to the situation in Yemen in recent years, Alimi said, "It is open to all options for restoring the country by learning from the mistakes made."
 
Pointing out that they are fighting a "fight of fate" in order to restore state institutions, Alimi said, "We will continue to unite at home and abroad against the Houthi coup."
 
Alimi reminded that the National Dialogue Conference "is an important ground for ensuring justice so that the parties in Yemen admit their mistakes and not be repeated".
 
In Yemen, the Iranian-backed Houthis have been in control of the capital Sana'a and some regions since September 2014.
 
Coalition forces led by Saudi Arabia have been supporting the Yemeni government against the Houthis since March 2015.
 
As stated at the negotiating table, the Yemeni government firmly adheres to the "Gulf initiative (2011)", "National Dialogue Conference results (2013-2014)" and "UNSC Resolution 2216", which obliges it to leave the areas under the control of the Houthis. The Houthis, on the other hand, reject all three attempts.
 
Finally, in Yemen, at the Southern National Dialogue Conference, which was held with the goal of separating the south of the country from the north, on May 8, at the call of the United Arab Emirates (UAE)-backed Southern Transitional Council (STC), a contract "opening the way for separation" was signed.
 
Claiming that successive governments in Yemen discriminated against the southern provinces politically and economically and demanding the separation of the south of the country from the north, the STC controls most of the southern provinces of Aden, Shabwa, Socotra and Ebyan.
