On Saturday, the new government was sworn in before interim President Abd Rabbu Mansour Hadi in the Saudi capital, Riyadh.
The Yemeni News Agency "Saba" stated that Prime Minister Maeen Abdulmalik and members of the government performed the two constitutional oaths in front of President Hadi in Riyadh.
