Press TV has conducted an interview with Jim W. Dean, the managing editor of Veterans Today, in Atlanta, to discuss the speech by UN Secretary General Ban Ki-moon at the opening session of a recent Arab League summit in the Egyptian city of Sharm el-Sheikh.

Dean argues that the UN is once again sitting on the sidelines instead of being on top of the issue.

Dean further says that a lack of a UN mandate for the Saudi military campaign against Yemen shows that the UN is being manipulated by Saudi Arabia over the invasion of Yemen, adding that Ban is almost marginalizing the organization in this situation.
