The chance for peace in Yemen

The Peace Research Institute Oslo (PRIO) had the pleasure of hosting a lecture by the Minister of Foreign and Expatriates Affairs of Yemen Dr. Ahmed bin Mubarak.

For seven years, Yemen has been devastated by civil war. As a result, the country is facing the looming threat of fragmenting into different statelets. In his lecture, ‘The chance for peace in Yemen’, Minister Dr. Ahmed bin Mubarak explored the current political, economic and security priorities and outlined his vision for a comprehensive and sustainable peace for all of Yemen.

The Minister was welcomed by Henrik Urdal, PRIO Director. The Minister’s lecture was followed by Q&A session, chaired by Kristian Berg Harpviken, Director of the PRIO Middle East Centre.
