PARIS, Nov 13 - It is necessary to raise pressure on Yemen's Houthis so that they end their attacks in the region, notably on Saudi Arabia, France's foreign ministry spokesperson said on Friday.
He was responding to a question on whether Paris backed the idea of the European Union designating the Houthis as a terrorist organisation.
Saudi Arabia is pressing the EU for the move, but has yet to overcome European concerns that this could undermine a future peace process, six European officials told Reuters on Thursday. REUTERS
