HR/VP @kajakallas met on 11 November Minister of Foreign Affairs of Yemen, @afrah_alzouba.
They discussed the Houthis' attacks against civilians and civilian infrastructure in Yemen and Saudi Arabia. The siege of Taiz is worsening the humanitarian situation. A humanitarian corridor to the city must be opened urgently.
The EU's position is clear: we stand by Yemen's unity, sovereignty, independence and territorial integrity. We will continue to support Yemen's livelihood, economic resilience and maritime security capacities, stepping up our efforts to curb the flow of arms to the Houthis.
Freedom of navigation is paramount. @EUNAVFORASPIDES will continue to protect maritime shipping and the lives of seafarers around Bab el Mandeb.
On 16 November, the HR/VP @kajakallas will open the fourth Ukraine Mine Action Conference 2026 (UMAC 2026), at the Residence Palace, in Brussels.

HR/VP @kajakallas today, 11 November, at the @Europarl_EN, on Ukrainian children forcibly deported to Russia or living in Russian-occupied territories in Ukraine.
Read the HR/VP’s full press remarks here: link.europa.eu/qBRFFw
Over 20,500 children have been illegally deported from occupied areas of Ukraine to Russia.
The treatment of Ukraine’s children over the last four years is the clearest example of Russia’s total disregard for life.
Russia can only run its horrific system of child deportation, indoctrination and illegal adoption thanks to a network of people and entities.
The EU has sanctioned those responsible and will keep working to bring Ukrainian kids home.

The EU has trained 100 000 Ukrainian soldiers through its military assistance mission.
This is a major achievement, reflecting the EU's unwavering support for Ukraine in the face of Russia's war of aggression.
🇪🇺🇺🇦 We stand with Ukraine.

The tragic loss of life in the shooting in Kraków is a tragedy that will be felt far beyond Poland.
I have conveyed my heartfelt condolences to @sikorskiradek. My thoughts are with the victims and their families and the first responders.
Poland’s strength lies in the resilience of its people. In this moment of grief, Poland does not stand alone.
