The portal said Saleh is to unveil political reforms to be implemented within the next period. Saleh`s expected speech was announced on Sunday by his information advisor Ahmed al-Soufi, who told Xinhua that the president would deliver the speech to the nation within 48 hours.
The president, 69, has not been seen in public since he was airlifted to Riyadh a day after being seriously injured in the bombardment that hit his palace, which killed 12 of Saleh`s aides and wounded tens of high-ranking government officials. The officials said Saleh is now in good health condition.
The president has faced months of protests across the country that left hundreds of people dead since the beginning of this year, demanding him to end his 33-year rule and leave the country (*)
