Saleh to promised to leave office
Yemeni President Ali Abdullah Saleh on Monday said he would leave office in 90 days after reaching an agreement on a scheduled operating mechanism for implementing the Gulf-brokered initiative for power transfer, xinhuanet.com reports.
"I will step down in 90 days after reaching an agreement with the opposition on a scheduled operating mechanism for implementing the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) initiative and signing it," Saleh said in an interview with France's Arabic-language Channel 24 television late on Monday.
"I do not mind to leave in 30, or 60 or 90 days ... the most important is we have to reach an agreement on a scheduled mechanism for implementing the deal," Saleh said.
