Saudi Interior Minister in Sana’a Today [Archives:2001/43/Front Page]
October 22 2001

President’s advisor, Mr. Hussein al-Hubeishi said a joint Yemeni, Saudi and Eritrean meeting is likely to start soon in order to finalize an agreement on the final demarcation of the marine borders between the three countries.
He pointed out that the question of marine borders between the three countries is completed, but the closeness of their marine borders makes it difficult for two parties to sign an agreement without the agreement of the third party. He said the three parties will meet soon, without giving a specific date.
Al-Hubeishi denied any disagreement between Yemen and Eritrea over marine border issues. He pointed out that there is no disagreement over this issue and that legal preparations to this end are underway.
