The last week session of Yemeni opposition leaders in exile, held in Austria was busy, but political experts say it didn't produce significant issues. However, the meeting was plagued by sporadic spillover violence from the separatists, pro-government media reported.
The session attended by ex-vice president of Yemen, Ali-Salem Al-Beidh, ex-Yemeni prime minister, Haider Abu Bakr Al-Attas, Saleh Obaid Ahmed, and Mohamed Ali Ahmed, was boycotted by Yemeni former president Ali Nasser Mohamed.
According to the same sources, Al-Beidh said that he found most of the debate and discussion in last week session trivial.
For his part, Yemeni political analyst who spoke on anonymity said that what was unimportant was the session didn’t have much of a fresh agenda and that session grew very, very thin as they started bulking it up with old and hated issues that they had scraped out of the garage from two or three years ago.
Recently when asked for his opinion on the former exiled leaders Mohammad, Al- Beidh and Al-Attas, Hamid Al-Ahmar wondered about the information that was circulating about a Presidential directive on the rehabilitation and home restoration of them.
He further praised and saluted Mohammad and Professor Al-Beidh for their embrace of the movement for tolerance and reconciliation.
