They discussed the latest developments in Aden and called on conflicting Yemeni parties to prioritise dialogue for the interest of its people.

The Abu Dhabi Crown Prince also expressed his appreciation for the wisdom shown by the Saudi leadership in inviting Yemeni parties in the port city to hold talks.
