Saleh accepts Gulf proposal, opposition rejects it

While the Yemeni President Ali Abdullah Saleh agreed Monday to the initiative proposed by the Gulf states, the  Yemeni opposition coalition rejected it because the proposal contained no mentioning of Saleh's trial. The opposition representatives announced that the initiative does not meet the protesters' demands to oust the regime.

A statement issued by the presidential office today welcomed the mediation efforts, which include the transferring of his powers to his deputy and forming a new government led by the opposition.
