President Hadi offers condolence to British Queen on Thatcher's death

President Abdo Rabbo Mansour Hadi on Wednesday sent a message of condolence to British Queen Elizabeth II on the death of the first female Prime Minister of Great Britain Margret Thatcher. In the message, President Hadi expressed deep regrets and extended on behalf of Yemeni people and government heartfelt condolences to the government and people of Britain. Thatcher's spokesman, Tim Bell, said the former prime minister died from a stroke Monday morning at the Ritz hotel in London, reports said. Margret Thatcher dubbed the "Iron Lady", who ruled for 11 remarkable years, imposed her will on a fractious, rundown nation — breaking the unions, triumphing in a far-off war, and selling off state industries at a record pace. She left behind a leaner government and more prosperous nation by the time a political mutiny ousted her from No. 10 Downing Street.
