The US administration is strongly opposed to discontinuing support of Saudi-led Arab Coalition in Yemen, a US State Department official told a conference in Abu Dhabi on Sunday.
 
The United States believes that the Yemen that emerges from civil war should not contain any Iranian-backed threat to Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates, the official added.
 
The United States is also encouraging the Yemeni government, backed by the Saudi-led coalition, and the Iran-aligned Houthi militias to engage in peace talks taking place in Sweden, said Timothy Lenderking, Deputy Assistant Secretary for Arabian Gulf Affairs.
