Gift Description
Transportation between Sanaa, Yemen and Mukallah, Yemen to meet President Salih. ($235.00), which represents the cost of round trip airfare between the two cities. February 19, 2004.
Justification
Official travel to meet with President Salih to discuss international trade issues. The staff delegation was scheduled to meet with the President in Sanaa, but they were informed that the President was in Mukallah and the Government of Yemen has arranged to transport us there for the meeting. Due to the late hour of arrival in Sanaa, and given the early departure needed to arrive in time to meet the President, it was impractical to arrange a commercial flight within the time constraints given us.
