New VP: Egypt will maintain Israel peace treaty

"Yes we will have a peace agreement," Vice President Omar Suleiman said in an interview with the US broadcaster ABC News that aired Friday. "We will keep it firmly and not violate it at all."

"didn't ask that President Mubarak step down now.

"But I told her it was a process, and at the end of it, President Mubarak will leave."

He added: "No, Egypt will not be anything like Tunisia," he said. "This is different. You know that our president is a fighter. He lived on this soil and he will die on this soil."
