February-1-2011

Egypt's new Vice President Omar Suleiman announced on Monday that the Egyptian president appointed him to hold immediate dialogue with the opposition.

According to Suleiman, President Hosni Mubarak highlighted the importance of executing court's orders to correct the parliamentary elections results, which the opposition has alleged fraudulent.

Suleiman, a former intelligence chief, was recently appointed as Egypt's vice president in response to the massive protests that took place in Egypt governorates.
