Dr Al-Maitami called on the governments of the member states of the two groups to prop up the legal government so as to retake the state's institutions and re-establish peace that is based on the GCC's Initiative, outcomes of the National Dialogue and UN Security Council resolution 2216. He also called for technical and institutional assistance for economic recovery and reconstruction programs the Yemeni government is planning.
