Almotamar.net - Russia called on Thursday Yemen's political parties to work as hard as possible to reach an agreement of the current impasse in Yemen.

All political powers did not relinquish the dialogue on forming new State's institutions, despite continuing the current crisis in Yemen," Russian Foreign Ministry spokesman Alexander Lukashevich told reporters.

He urged all political parties to speed up negotiations and show maximum flexibility in order to reach a settlement and implement the Security Council resolution 2201.

Russia will continue to support Yemen and the UN Special Adviser Jamal Benomar to reach a national reconciliation in Yemen, the Russian spokesman said, calling for an extension to the UN envoy's tenure in Yemen to continue his efforts aiming to establish common grounds for settlement among all Yemeni political parties and to lead the country out of its crisis.
