"The Yemeni people stand united with the legitimate government and any support for the Aden chaos and liberated areas is tantamount to absolute support to Iran and its terrorist militias", he said in a series of tweets.
The United Arab Emirates-backed separatists earlier this month took over Aden port, interim seat of Yemen's Saudi-backed government, and last week they extended their control to neighbouring Abyan.
Since March 2015, Saudi Arabia and some of its Arab allies have been carrying out deadly airstrikes against the Houthi Ansarullah movement in an attempt to restore power to fugitive former president Abd Rabbuh Mansour Hadi, a close ally of Riyadh.
He added, "As a Coalition partner, the UAE will continue exerting all efforts to pursue de-escalation in the south of Yemen", emphasising that the UAE was a vital member of the joint delegation with the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia to maintain the integrity of national institutions in Aden during developments regarding the STC.
However, the UAE-backed separatist Southern Transitional Council (STC) has a rival agenda to Hadi's government, which has refused to participate in any talks unless the southern forces reverse what it calls a coup.
The standoff has exposed differences between regional allies Saudi Arabia and the UAE, which in June scaled down its presence in Yemen while still backing thousands of southern separatist fighters. Articles appear on euronews.com for a limited time.

The Saudi government is seeking foreign support to make up for its lack of power, Abdul-Salam said on his Twitter account on Tuesday night, according to the Arabic-language al-Masirah TV.
He held the STC and UAE responsible for the repercussions of the Aden rebellion, demanding that Abu Dhabi cease its military support to the council.
The UN envoy for Yemen on Tuesday urged all stakeholders to take recent infighting around Aden, the government stronghold, as "a clear sign" that the country's long-running conflict must be brought to an end.
"It is not appropriate for the Yemeni government to hang its political and administrative failure on the UAE", Abu Dhabi's deputy permanent United Nations representative said in NY. The U.N. says both countries also have contributed an additional $89 million and $38 million, respectively, for organizations working outside of the plan.
The Houthis, who say they are fighting a corrupt system, point to Aden as proof that Hadi is unfit to rule.
The conflict, which has killed tens of thousands and pushed Yemen to the brink of starvation, is widely seen in the region as a proxy war between Saudi Arabia and Iran.
