v· Arabic: حزب البعث العربي الاشتراكي القومي - قطر اليمن) is the Yemeni regional organization of the Baghdad-based Arab Socialist Ba'ath Party.[2] The secretary of the party in Yemen is Dr. Qassem Salam Said.[3] Abdulwahid Hawash serves as the deputy secretary.[4] The party publishes the newspaper al-Ehyaa al-Arabi (لإحياء العربي, 'Arabic Renaissance').[1]
Ba'athism in Yemen originates back to the 1950s. The party worked underground until 1990. It obtained official registration as the 'National Arab Socialist Ba'ath Party' on February 10, 1997. The party had initially sought to register itself as the 'Arab Socialist Ba'ath Party' in 1995, but that name was accorded by the authorities to another Ba'athist group.[3]
The party contested the 1993 parliamentary election in alliance with the other Ba'athist group, winning seven seats. After the election the relations between the two Ba'athist groups soured, though, and they went on to contest further elections separately. The party contested the 1997 parliamentary election, but failed to win any seats. The party called for a boycott of the 1999 presidential election. In the 2003 parliamentary elections, the party obtained 23,745 votes (0.4% of the national vote) and again failed to re-enter parliament.[3] The party won two district council seats in the 2006 local council elections.[5]
Politically, the party is aligned with the ruling General People's Congress. During the 2011 Arab Spring, this posture caused an internal split in the party.[6] In March 2011, there were reports that the Hodeidah branch of the party had sided with the uprising, following violent attacks on protestors in that city.[7]
