The revolt has killed 187 people, according to a statement from Agence France-Presse. The EU ministers called on President Saleh to cede power "immediately".

"Any use of violence against peaceful demonstrators must stop immediately," the statement said. Same side of the imperative of the United States: Washington Monday urged President Saleh to "break the deadlock" in signing the agreement.
For its part, France has denounced the behavior "irresponsible and unacceptable," President Saleh while the Council of Ministers of Saudi Arabia wanted the transition to be signed "as soon as possible." Young people who camped for three months instead of "Change" in Sanaa also agreed "to intensify the protest and call for general strike four days a week," said a leader of the movement, Wassim al-qirsh.
