The GPC is the largest and most influential political party within Yemeni politics. Ali Abdullah Saleh founded the party in 1982, and it has served as a patronage mechanism for Saleh and a means for politicians to access power and resources. The GPC holds a majority in the Yemeni legislature. Members originally backed Saleh in his support for the al Houthi movement in 2014–15, but a faction is now seeking to negotiate a political settlement with British, American, and Emirati officials to withdraw support from the al Houthis.
