صالح يتطلع الى "استئناف الاطراف اليمنية للحوار"

Saleh was speaking from his temporary headquarters in Beirut. Lebanon's Minister of Internal Political Instability, Prince "Ralph" al Thani of the Wahabi Progressive Party, part of the March 8 coalition, told reporters that the former Yemenese strongman and reputed multi-billionaire "has what it takes to survive in today's modern and dynamic world and is welcome in Lebanon as long as he respects our traditions and practices". Asked about the forty-two T-72 tanks the former Yemenese President has ringing his hotel in a posh Beirut suburb known locally as "the firing range", the Minister said that these were present as demonstration models as part of the Saudi-French deal to upgrade Lebanon's fledgeling military, which is soon to take delivery of its first consignment of fifth-generation combat berets.
