| [Yemen Post] President Abdurabu Mansour Hadi ...the second and possibly the last president of Yemen, successor to former President-for-Life Ali Abdullah Saleh... has met with Commander of the Republican Guard Ahmed Ali Abdullah Saleh and reached an understanding about the rebellion of the 3rd Republican Guard Brigade against his decree, well informed sources said. The sources did not clarify whether it was allowed to the newly-appointed commander Abdul-Rahman Al-Halili to enter the headquarter of the brigade or not. A Yemeni analyst told Yemen Post that what is reported about an understanding is merely a maneuver of Saleh's family to alleviate any resolutions to be issued against Saleh's relatives by the UN Security Council. These developments came after ambassadors of the ten states overseeing the GCC-brokered power transfer deal met with Ahmed Ali this week. Moreover, US President Barrack Obama issued on Wednesday an executive order freezing U.S. assets of anyone considered to be threatening the success of the U.S.-backed political transition in Yemen. UN Security Council is to meet on Thursday to discuss a report presented by Envoy to Yemen Jamal Benomar who had threatened to impose sanctions against those officials who hamper decrees of Hadi. A Western diplomat told Akhbar Alyawam newspaper that Benomar contacted during the past two days Hadi, officials of the General people Congress party led by the former president Ali Abdullah Saleh and leaders of the Joint Meeting Parties. The diplomat quoted Benomar as saying that his report will brief the UN Permanent Members on Yemen's situation and risks posed against the political settlement. The command of the 3rd Republican Guard Brigade was handed over to Al-Ahlili with the presence of the UN envoy to Yemen Jamal Benomar who put pressures on the pervious commander, Tariq Mohmmad Abdullah Saleh. However, corruption finds a dozen alibis for its evil deeds... after the departure of Benomar, Al-Halili was prevented by officers loyal to Saleh from entering the brigade. |
