The three most important political parties in Taiz Governorate confirmed that they did not approve the declaration of the new entity of the Muslim Brotherhood, called the Taiz Inclusive Forum.

A joint tripartite statement issued by the Socialist, the Nasserist, and the Baath said that they were surprised by the Brotherhood and independent media circulating their approval to announce the Taiz Collective Forum during a meeting they gathered yesterday, Monday, with the Taiz Governorate Undersecretary for Defense and Security Affairs.

The joint statement said: "Our participation in the meeting on Monday morning came based on a telegram from the governorate's operations and at the invitation of Major General Abdul Karim al-Sabri, the deputy governor for security and defense affairs, to stand up to the latest developments in the governorate."

The statement added: "During the meeting, it became clear to us that the meeting was for discussing a draft related to the Taiz Inclusive Forum, and in the meeting we made it clear that we support any civil, political, and societal activity that serves the governorate, and we made it clear in the meeting that we cannot be part of any political component that is not clearly defined."  The nature of the problems that Taiz suffers from and the interim tasks to be accomplished to solve these problems, specifically the problem of imbalances and corruption in the army and security establishment.

The three parties, the Socialist, the Nasserist, and the Ba'ath, explained that "diagnosing the problem of the army and security and developing serious treatments have a basic entry point for comprehensive reforms in the various institutions and state offices in the province."
