Saleh not real clear on that 'honorary president' thing
2011-11-27
[Yemen Post] A senior Interior Ministry official said that President-for-Life Saleh
... exemplifying the Arab's propensity to combine brutality with incompetence...
contacted the Interior Minister twice over the last 36 hours giving him orders on how to run certain matters. "His contact is directly with the minister.

It was like that all along. The minister received a call from President Saleh last night," Under the power transfer agreement signing in Riyadh days ago, Saleh does not have authority to act as president and his 90-day role is a honorary president with no authorities.

Opposition forces are worried that Saleh will not implement the points in the agreement and continue calling for sanctions on the ruling family if the agreement is not implemented.

Vice President Hadi has not authorized anything or released a statement since being handed the authorities of President Saleh.
