Yemen’s former Saudi-backed President Abd Rabbuh Mansour Hadi has said the conflict in the country will be settled militarily rather than politically.

Speaking in New York on the sidelines of the UN General Assembly, Hadi told the Saudi-owned al-Arabiya channel that “the military solution is the more likely one for the Yemen crisis.” 

Elsewhere in the interview, Hadi claimed that his administration “continues to extend its hand for peace because it is responsible for the Yemeni people and for lifting the suffering from it.”
