Yemeni Minister of Information Ali Al-Omrani called the Gulf States to launch an aid program, similar to the “Marshall Plan” for his country. Omrani who is appointed as the government spokesman, said in his first press conference that the Gulf States should stand by Yemen in this critical historic moment, confirming that this program will help Yemen to emerge as effective partners in the Gulf region. Omrani also stressed that this government is not a post-sharing government, but it’s a burden-sharing one, and it faces challenges which never have been in Yemen’s history. “Our main mission to be fully committed to the Gulf initiative and its implementation mechanisms to get the desired changes in the country,” he said, pointing out that the main tasks of the government are to defuse all manifestations of tension and violence, prepare the ground for the return of troops and develop a program for economic recovery. About the freedom of the press, he said it will be in its best ever situation and that there will be no censorship on journalists \"except from their conscience.\"  He pointed out that journalists work out a code of conduct to regulate the profession, saying \"The mass media have to serve the national interests of the people and reflect the opposite ends of the political spectrum.\" He also stressed the most important point on this government is its members’ integrity and transparency and abide by the law, calling the media to face anyone who tries to violate these principles. Omrani pointed out to the missions of the military committee saying it made good progress in removing the arms currently in the capital city of Sanaa and Taez, assuring that the committee will endeavor to remove tensions in Al-Hassba neighborhood and the rest of neighborhoods in Sanaa. It’s worth mentioning that the Marshall plan was a large-scale aid program for Europe, in which the United States offered up to $ 13 billion to the Western European economies in the wake of the World War II.
