S/RES/2051 (2012)

                     Stressing that the best solution to the situation in Yemen is through a peaceful,

               meaningful political, economic and social reform, as set forth in the GCC Initiative
               and Implementation Mechanism and in resolution 2014 (2011),
                     Recalling that the transition process requires the involvement and cooperation
