Tasnim� Iranian Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif highlighted the applicability of a four-point plan he had put forward more than two years ago for bringing peace to Yemen.

In a post in his Twitter account on Thursday, the top Iranian diplomat implicitly complained about the United Nations� inattention to the peace plan he had proposed for Yemen in 2015.

�In 2015, soon after Saudi coalition initiated war on Yemen, I wrote to #UNSG offering a 4 point peace plan: Ceasefire; Humanitarian Assistance; Intra-Yemeni Dialog; & Inclusive Government. Over 2.5 years & many lives later, that plan is still valid today,� he said.

Since March 2015, Saudi Arabia and some of its allies have launched a military campaign against Yemen to restore power to the fugitive former President Abd Rabbuh Mansour Hadi, a close ally of Riyadh.

Since then, more than 14,000 people have been killed and millions have been forced from their homes as a result of the attacks, while the country is also facing severe famine and a deadly cholera outbreak.

In April 2015, Zarif submitted a letter to the then UN Secretary-General, Ban Ki-moon, outlining his four-point peace plan for Yemen, which calls for an immediate ceasefire and end of all foreign military attacks, humanitarian assistance, a resumption of broad national dialogue and establishment of an inclusive national unity government.
