interest the agreement reached by the Interim Governing
Council, endorsing the Interim Administrative Law for the
transitional period in Iraq. The Republic of Yemen welcomes
this important step and hopes that it will be a positive one
on the path to restoring Iraq's sovereignty, craft a
permanent constitution and establish an independent
government that will guarantee Iraqis their security and
stability, end the foreign occupation of brotherly Iraq and
enable Iraq to play its national role in serving the (Arab)

positive role played by the U.S. Civil Administrator of the
Coalition Forces, Paul Bremer, in reaching such a historic
