SANA'A, March 07 (Saba) - Deputy Foreign Minister Dr. Ali Muthana Hassan has returned to Sana'a after his participation in the 131st meeting of the Arab Foreign Ministers.

Speaking to Saba, Hassan said that the meeting had confirmed the importance of the Arab-Israeli peace initiative which was re-approved in the economic conference held lately in Kuwait.

The Arab Ministers examined different issues submitted to this meeting, in particular the Palestinian case, the Doha Summit's agenda, Arab reconciliation and improvement of inter-Arab relations, Palestinian reconciliation, situation in Sudan and Horn of Africa, as well as relations between the Arab countries and different regional and international groupings.

The Arab officials expressed deeply concern about the decision of the International Criminal Court (ICC) to issue an arrest warrant against Sudanese President Omar al-Bashir

The Hague-based ICC issued an arrest warrant against al-Bashir for alleged war crimes and crimes against humanity in the country's restive western region of Darfur between 2003 and 2008.
