📑STATEMENT: Belize condemns in the strongest terms the Houthi attacks on Riyadh last week. We stand in solidarity with the Government and people of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and extend our condolences to the families of those affected.
Attacks on civilians and civilian infrastructure are indefensible and violate international humanitarian law. We call for an immediate end to such attacks, respect for the sovereignty and territorial integrity of all States, and a peaceful, UN-led political settlement in Yemen.

Belize is a sovereign and independent state. Under the Charter of the United Nations, every state has the right to conduct its foreign policy free from external pressure.
Belize remains committed to peaceful relations with all states, to dialogue as the means of resolving differences, and to the purposes and principles of the United Nations Charter. We call on all states to refrain from unilateral coercive measures against officials of other states.
