Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak makes a televised statement to his nation on February 10, 2011. Following more than two weeks of protests, anti-government demonstrators were given hope by official statements suggesting that Mubarak may step down after 30 years in power. But Mubarak said in his statement that while protester demands are legitimate, he won't give in to foreign dictates. He also said he has handed some powers to his vice president.Photo by Abed Rahim Khatib / Flash90

Egyptian Vice President Omar Suleiman makes a televised statement on February 10, 2011. Following more than two weeks of protests, anti-government demonstrators were been given hope by official statements suggesting that President Mubarak may step down after 30 years in power. But Mubarak announced he is handing his powers over to his vice president, Omar Suleiman, and has ordered constitutional amendments. The move means he retains his title of president and ensures regime control over the reform process, falling short of protester demands. Suleiman told protesters to go home.Photo by Abed Rahim Khatib / Flash90
