海灣合作委員會提出包括也門總統下野的過渡方案
Yemeni officials say the organization of Gulf Arab states has given Yemen's President Ali Abdullah Saleh a revised proposal to hasten his exit from office and provide for new elections. The plan presented in Yemen on Thursday includes Mr. Saleh's resignation and a three-month transition. Mr. Saleh would transfer powers to a deputy who would then form a unity government within two months.
Under the plan, ruling party members would control half of the unity government, 40 percent would be held by an opposition coalition and 10 percent by unaffiliated groups. There would be a presidential election two months after Mr. Saleh's resignation. In exchange, opposition groups would agree to stop anti-government protests that have been raging for months.
Officials say the secretary-general of the Gulf Cooperation Council, Abdullatif al-Zayani, presented the plan to Mr. Saleh on Thursday during a meeting in Yemen's capital, Sana'a. Reuters news agency says Zayani later met with Yemeni opposition leaders but there was no immediate word on the outcome of the talks.
也門官員說，海灣阿拉伯國家組織的官員向也門總統薩利赫遞交了一份經過修改的計劃，旨在加速他的離去，爲新選舉作準備。星期四在也門提交的計劃，內容包括薩利赫辭職和爲期三個月的過渡期。計劃建議薩利赫把權力交給副總統，然後由副總統在兩個月內組建一個團結政府。
計劃規定，執政黨成員控制團結政府的一半職位。百分之四十的職位由反對派聯盟擔任。另外百分之十的職位由無黨派人士擔任。薩利赫辭職後兩個月舉行總統選舉。作爲交換，反對派須同意停止持續了好幾個月的反政府示威。
官員們說，海灣合作委員會祕書長扎耶尼星期四在也門首都薩那會晤了薩利赫，提出這項建議。路透社說，晚些時候扎耶尼會晤了也門反對派領導人。但是現在還沒有會談結果的消息。
