UN PLEDGES SUPPORT AS YEMEN OFFICIALLY WRAPS UP NATIONAL DIALOGUE
New York, Jan 25 2014 9:00PM
Praising national talks that concluded today in Yemen as
"unprecedented" in the country and the region, a senior United Nations
official said the outcomes of the year-long talks will serve as a
"roadmap for a new Yemen".

"You have presented an opportunity to create a new social contract and
to meet the aspirations of Yemeni women and men for a country governed
by the rule of law, justice, human rights, equal citizenship,
democracy and good governance," Jamal Benomar, Secretary-General Ban
Ki-moon's Special Adviser said in Sanaa.
"The National Dialogue [Conference] was no picnic but an onerous
journey interrupted by considerable obstacles and challenges that
sometimes reached the extent of sacrificing life," he said, paying
homage to number of delegates who were killed, threatened or attempted
to be bribed during the months of the plenaries.

Despite its "difficult birth", it yielded "consensual, clear and
detailed principles", Mr. Benomar said at the ceremony attended by
representatives of the UN, the Arab League and neighbouring countries.

The envoy, who is due to brief the Security Council on Tuesday, said
he would present to the 15-member and to the international community a
story behind "this unprecedented achievement".

"I will tell the world about a civilized Yemeni scene that we have
witnessed closely over the past period," he said. "It has become an
inspiration to many other nations, particularly in light of the
disorder, uncertainty and tragedies other countries in the region
continue to suffer."

He stressed that the UN, and international and regional communities
would continue to support and stand by Yemen's side throughout its
transition.

The country has been undergoing a democratic transition, with a
Government of National Unity, which came to power in an election in
February 2012 following the resignation of former President Ali
Abdullah Saleh. He agreed to step down following widespread protests
similar to those seen across the Middle East and North Africa as part
of the so-called "Arab Spring" pro-democracy movement.


Launched on 18 March, the National Dialogue Conference brought new
actors to the political process such as youth, women, civil society
representatives and the Hiraak Southern Movement. The Conference aimed
to feed into a constitution-making process and pave the way for
general elections later this year.
Mr. Benomar, who participated in the Final Plenary chaired by
President Abed Rabbu Mansour Hadi, today also reaffirmed the support
of the UN and the international community to the Yemeni-led political
process.
Turning to the so-called "southern question", he noted that a fair
solution under a new unified state on federal and democratic basis was
at the core the talks.

Mr. Benomar said he was confident that Southerners would be "immune to
calls for violence, which aim to force them into a dark tunnel" and
urged them to "be responsive" to the outcome of the dialogue, which
was agreed and signed by all constituents.
