The former ex-vice president of Yemen Ali Salem Al-Baidh who leads the southern movement form exile pledged to keep up struggle and vowed the southern movement of self-ruling in Southern Yemen, local media reported on Sunday, adding that the declaration of Al-Baidh came this time form Geneva.

Al-Baidh was cited as saying he would continue the peaceful struggle until he gets back the State of the south and then hands over the power to young natives.
"Sana'a regime will not stop the southern movement from a nonviolent struggle against the government," he said in statement.

Yemeni analyst who spoke on condition of anonymity because of the sensitivity of the case believe the unrest in southern Yemen witnessed a new turning point as exiled leaders broke their 15-year old silence and declared themselves persons in charge of the southern movement which calls for the separation of the south.
He, further, said that the murder of Al-Qarshi, who was still a major opposition figure while in exile and one of the first to return after the pardon, may discourage other opposition leaders, many of whom are still in exile, from returning to Yemen.
Pro-government analyst said that what was unimportant was Al-Baidh and many other secessionists in exile didn’t have much of fresh agendas and their dreams grew very, very thin as they started bulking it up with old and hated issues that they had scraped out of the garage from two or three years ago.
Recently the unrest in the south has often targeted northerners, and northern-owned businesses have been set aflame.
