RIYADH-SABA

Vice President Lt. Gen. Ali Mohsen Saleh has emphasized on the parliament's responsibility to prepare for assuming its legislative tasks to safeguard the state's legitimacy against coup.

The Vice President made the remarks during an Iftar banquet he organized today to host Yemen's lawmakers. Among the banquet's attendants was speaker of the parliament Mohammed A. al-Shaddadi.

The Vice President conveyed to the guests the greetings of H.E Abdu Rabbu Mansour Hadi and command of the Arab coalition.

"It is time for the parliament to finalize its arrangements and assume its pioneering role by performing the tasks assigned to it by the law and the constitution," he said as he addressed the guests.

The Vice President urged the lawmakers to multiply their efforts, show wisdom and perseverance and to closely know the people's suffering which worsened as a result of the coup militia's tyrannical grip on their life.

He said that victory is inevitably coming and that the realization of a federal stable secure state is a prime goal for the government.

"We drive our legitimacy from our people and the sacrifices of our heroes. From the GCC Initiative, the outcomes of the National Dialogue and the UNSC resolutions, he said. "The coupers derive their legitimacy from carnage, terrorism and demolishing acts, nothing else."
