Almotamar.net, Saba - Prime Minister Ali Mujawar handed over on Sunday to Syrian President Bashar al-Assad a letter from President Ali Abdullah Saleh. The letter includes an invitation extended by President Saleh to al-Assad to visit Yemen.
President al-Assad appreciated the invitation, promising to visit Yemen as soon as possible.
The letter also dealt with issues related to the brotherly relations and aspects of cooperation between the two sisterly countries, in addition to the latest developments in the regional and international arenas that are of common concern.
For his part, al-Assad expressed his appreciation towards Yemen's attitude and its supporting position for Syria, reaffirming his country's supportive position for Yemen’s stability and unity.
The meeting talked about the progressed development witnessed in the Yemeni-Syrian relations in addition to the active role of the higher Yemeni-Syrian Joint Committee in strengthening the economic, cultural and social relations.
In 2007 the opposition Yemen Congregation for Reform (Islah) Islamic oriented Party maintained its having political and media sway over the Joint meeting Parties (JMP) block, also consisting of Yemen Socialist Party and the Nasserite Unionist Organisation.
Yemen is practically a cool green paradise, with crisp mountain air, enormous acacia trees, pristine coral reefs and verdant fields bursting with khat, a psychoactive plant that induces mild euphoria.
Sana'a: Yemen will not be able to combat terror without regional and international cooperation, said a Yemeni official, who warned of the ramifications of letting Yemen fight terrorism alone.
Doctors use the word “crisis” to describe the point at which a patient either starts to recover or dies. President George W. Bush’s Iraqi patient now seems to have reached that point. Most commentators appear to think that Bush’s latest prescription – a surge of 20,000 additional troops to suppress the militias in Baghdad – will, at best, merely postpone the inevitable death of his dream of a democratic Iraq. Yet as “Battle of Baghdad” begins, factors beyond Bush’s control and not of his making (at least not intentionally) may just save Iraq from its doom.
