Minister disowns comment that UAE's role in Yemen is over
DUBAI- A top diplomat for the United Arab Emirates has stepped back from his earlier comments that the country's part in the Saudi-led war in Yemen was "over."
The state-run WAM news agency quoted Minister of State for Foreign Affairs Anwar Gargash early Friday morning as making the comments in London.
WAM quoted Gargash as saying: "We are at war. I am appalled that my statement was taken out of context and misinterpreted."
