Ta'izz, 5 May 1990 (Communiqué) As our Yemeni people rejoice in the
revolutionary joy of achieving the great goal of unity and having attained the highest
levels of noble, honourable and everlasting revolutionary struggle, the Political
Organisation Committee held its fourth and concluding session in Ta'izz during the period
3rd-5th May 1990 under the chairmanship of YSPCC Assistant Secretary-General Salim Salih
Muhammad. This crowns its earlier meetings with the completion of the tasks it was charged
with.
In the meetings, national awareness was expressed of the
need for renewing the necessary rules for political activity in the Yemeni Republic in a
way that would consolidate free democratic practices, in accordance with the goals of the
Yemeni revolution, for all sectors and levels of society. This would guarantee that the
whole potential of national sacrifice would be harnessed to benefit the historic
transformation process and to entrench and develop the gains that our people have achieved
by their suffering and sacrifice throughout their struggle.
In a democratic atmosphere of unity, with a sincere
spirit, and after serious and responsible discussion the committee completed its tasks. It
was agreed to refer them to the political leadership for approval. They are the following:
-
The draft of the basic elements of the law on political
organisations and parties.
-
The draft of the basic elements of the charter on political
activity of political parties and organisations.
-
Agreement concerning the document governing political and
party action in security and military institutions.
-
Draft agreement on joint action between the General
People's Congress and the Yemeni Socialist Party. The leadership of the Congress and the
Party will have to approve this agreement.
Agreement was also reached to form a committee for
dialogue with political parties, organisations and public figures.
Therefore, the committee has completed its tasks,
consolidating the necessary bases for political action in the Yemeni Republic and
guaranteeing democratic, free and responsible practices.
Since inaugurating its activity in the period 31 October -
2 November 1989, the Political Organisation Committee has now concluded its meetings after
the historic Aden meeting. Everything that was hoped for has been achieved and all
aspirations have been met, constituting a great victory and the declaration of the birth
of the great and towering Yemeni Republic.
Let the enemies of the Yemeni peoples and unity know that
their desperate attempts to thwart the course of unity and development in the homeland
will not be stronger than the will of our people who have managed to thwart all
conspiracies at every stage of the victorious Yemeni revolution. The conspirators will
never succeed. Glory to the Yemeni revolution, immortality to its martyrs, and victory to
Yemeni unity. |
