Reliable sources confirmed to Yemen Times that President Saleh conducted meetings last Monday and Tuesday regarding a conciliation agreement among the tribes of Marib, after some tribes rejected a general conciliation agreement for a period of five years, as suggested by the President.
The President, along with other dignitaries, seeks the signing of a conciliation agreement among the tribes for a period of two and a half years.
Sources have stated that some tribes remain reluctant to sign the conciliation while at the same time some efforts are still being exerted to achieve that objective.
President Saleh personally supervises efforts to reach a conciliation agreement among the tribes, in particular among the tribes of Jahm, Abeidah, Al-Ashraf and Jeda'an, following the successful achievement of a truce between the tribes of Abeidah and Murad.
