Malaysia Firmly Condemns Houthi Attacks and Demands Shipping Safety
Published
The Government of Malaysia has issued an official statement to strongly condemn the attacks carried out by the Houthi group against civilians and civilian infrastructure in Saudi Arabia and other countries in the Gulf region. This action is considered a serious threat to peace and stability in the Middle East.
Furthermore, Malaysia emphasizes the importance of maintaining safe passage for commercial vessels traversing the Strait of Hormuz. This shipping route is a vital international trade artery for the global economy, including for global energy supplies.
Any disruption to security in the area is feared to have a negative impact on global supply chains and world commodity prices. Therefore, Malaysia calls on all parties involved to cease acts of violence and return to complying with international law for the sake of maintaining universal peace.
As a peace-loving nation, Malaysia will continue to support diplomatic efforts to find a peaceful resolution to the ongoing conflict. This commitment is in line with Malaysia's stance of always prioritizing dialogue in addressing international issues that threaten human security.
