Al-Manar knew that both Ansarullah revolutionary movement and General People’s Congress party had reservations on taking part in peace talks in Kuwait because of the continuous violations of ceasefire by the Saudi-led coalition.
For his part, UN envoy Ismail Ould Cheikh Ahmed announced that the talks have been delayed.
"Due to developments over the last few hours, the start of the Yemeni-Yemeni peace negotiations scheduled to begin today... in Kuwait, will be delayed," the envoy said in a statement, without specifying when they might take place.
He urged Ansarullah and its allies not to "miss this opportunity that could save Yemen the loss of more lives."
Earlier on Monday, Ansarullah sources told al-Manar that the two parties were holding a meeting in bid to decide on going to Kuwait for talks aimed at ending over a year of Saudi-led intervention in Yemen.
The sources added that Ansarullah and the GPC had firmly refused to receive the paper handed by UN Yemen Envoy Ismail Ould Cheikh Ahmed, stressing that the acceptance of such paper is considered as surrender.
“The solution could be just through setting an inclusive agenda,” the sources said, stressing that Ansarullah join the peace talks if the Saudi-led aggression was not stopped.
AFP news agency said that the start of UN-brokered peace talks in Kuwait was delayed on Monday as Ansarullah and GPC delegation was yet to arrive.
"There's no point in going to Kuwait if there's no respect for the ceasefire," Reuters news agency quoted a senior official in GPC as saying.
Yemen has been since March 26, 2015 under brutal aggression by Saudi-led coalition.
Thousands have been martyred and injured in the attack, with the vast majority of them are civilians.
Riyadh launched the attack on Yemen in a bid to restore power to fugitive president Abd Rabbu Mansour Hadi who is a close ally to Saudi Arabia.
