A number of politicians praised on Tuesday the final approval of the regions' committee which was produced during a meeting chaired by President Abdu Rabbu Mansour Hadi to transform Yemen into a six-region federation.

In short statements made to the NDC Media Center, they said that the final report of the committee would give Yemenis optimism that the country is in the way to tackle all of its crises.

They considered the birth of the federation in Yemen a defining moment and a transit station that will be very difficult to reach to safety.

A Yemeni analyst and journalist Sadeq Nasher said that conflicts occurred in Yemen during the previous period in the north and in the south and after the unification accumulated a lot of negatives and hindered the country from moving forward and transmit signals of hope for a better future.

Yemeni political activist, writer and member of the National Dialogue Conference Fahd Kvain said that the birth of the federation in Yemen is a "defining moment."

He added that the birth of the federation is a transit station that will be very difficult to reach to safety, indicating that it would determine a group of upcoming relationships in the country.

He pointed out that the declaration of the Regions' Committee Yemen into a six-region federation would help to combat corruption in the country.

Moreover, the head of the Economic Media and Studies Center Mustafa Nasr said that the committee’s final decision is a very important step in Yemen's modern history.

"With the spread of frustration among Yemenis due to the lack of development in Yemen it was necessary to have a new idea that would revive ​​a new ambition for a better future,'' he added.

"I do not say that the federal is a magic solution to the problem of Yemen. However, I confirm that centralization was one of the reasons led to economic failure and corruption,'' he concluded.
