Opposition To Discuss Formation of Yemeni Transitional Council Saturday
[Yemen Post] The Joint Meeting Parties, the opposition coalition in Yemen, meets on Saturday in the capital Sana'a to discuss the ways to form an immediate transitional council, a leader in the coalition's supreme council said on Friday.Hassan Zaid, secretary general of Al-Haq Party, told media that the coalition will announce a transitional council very soon amid pressure by millions of people in the country to do so. "The opposition never refuses the formation of the transitional council amid the current political vacuum while President-for-Life Saleh ... exemplifying the Arab's propensity to combine brutality with incompetence... is being treated in Soddy Arabia, but it tried to make the GCC West-backed power-sharing deal a success," he said. But now, the JMP should take action as the youth-led protesters continue their protests urging to form the transitional council, he said, pointing out that the council will include various political forces including the Houthi Group, the Southern Movement and the opposition abroad.
