Almotamar.net - SANAA- The Assistant Secretary-General of the General People's Congress (GPC), the head of the parliamentary bloc expressed his surprise over what they called a statement of the Joint Meeting Parties "JMP"'s Higher Council. He said " at the time we thought the JMP has reached to thinking of the state, the political action, and the interest of the homeland and the citizen, we find out it is still having the same thinking and fanatic mentality of power only. As fort the people and their interests they have not put into consideration and the proof is what has come out of the meeting carrying instigation, lies, sophism and exaggeration instead of their being at the level of responsibility and working with positiveness in welcoming the call of the GPC for dialogue."
Mr. Sultan al-Barakani said it was regrettable that the meeting was held after a statement by Dr Mohammed Abdulmalik al-Mutawakil in which he assured them of attaining power and promised them of it as if they do not know that al-Mutawakil works for stirring up discord between the political parties, especially the Islah party. Because he has no power he does not care that all will be destroyed in order to watch despite the revival of his hopes under dreams of the Safavid governments for which he began to search and undoubtedly he is among the most outstanding ones aspiring for them. We think that is better for al-Mutawakil instead waiting for or moving the events of Saada.
In his statement to almotamar.net al-Barakani we do not think that the besiege of Sana'a and the war of Saada will lead al-Mutawakil t power and his statements will not lead the JMP but to deep abyss. "For us, " he said " we are going on in achieving the tasks, the constitutional amendments, the local authority law and the law of parties and elections law whether the JMP participated or did not because we have a parliamentary majority and because the people on 20 September have granted president Ali Abdullah Saleh a full authority making him the most capable of taking the right decisions at the proper times."
Al-Barakani nevertheless renewed the GPC's call for the JMP to dialogue mentioning that the doors of dialogue will not be closed and also the call for it. He wished that the new leadership of the Islah party that will be elected next month to be more conscious and reasonable and to overcome the state of intellect stagnation affecting its present leadership.
