Despite the opening measures of the regime of Hosni Mubarak, the revolt against the Egyptian leader, who has 30 years in power, is kept alive. Tens of thousands of people return to cram the square today the release of Cairo, the epicenter of the protests against the dictator. Hundreds of people wait in long queues to enter.
In another day of mass demonstrations, the protesters ignored the measures announced by the Government and ensures that remain in the plaza until Mubarak leaves office. Today, Egyptian Vice President, Omar Suleiman, in charge of piloting the negotiations with the opposition, has said that Egypt has a plan and timetable for a peaceful transfer of power, announced the appointment of a commission to reform the constitution and promised that the Government did not prosecute the protesters for two weeks and have called and calling for an end to the Mubarak regime.
However, these timid reforms to gain time to convince citizens and thousands of them are stationed in the Place de la Liberation of Cairo, the epicenter of a revolt that has been on the brink Mubarak's regime. For today is called a new day of mass protest to mark the beginning of the third week of riots and after noon Liberation Square is crowded by thousands of people.
Have formed two long lines at the access controls to the square, between the two account for nearly a mile, "that go around and the Nile Corniche, the road that runs parallel to the river, and the bridge is Kasser Al Nil full of people waiting to enter. Although the city tries to recover gradually to normal, thousands of Cairenes run every day in the square: Besides those who have camped day, many go through the square at any time of day, before or after work and that transit be seen around the epicenter of the revolt.
At this time, the place you register your peak traffic until around five in the afternoon. Inside, food vendors, families or individuals who camp are mixed with those who come and go and can participate in activities and demonstrations. This morning, a demonstration of women has gone only part of the premises and there have been two rallies.
Others walk around the area which presents photos of those killed in the revolt, surrendering his personal tribute. Had also convened a ceremony in which filmmakers and intellectuals sought to show their support for the revolt, but has been postponed, probably because of the inability to arrive in time to some participants, due to access controls.
Those not allowed access to the plaza is the journalists who are not accredited in the country. Despite the large crowds of people, no incidents recorded at the time. Protesters also not lose hope or desire to take their protest to end the departure of President Mubarak. Understand that the awards scheme, the small opening measures have nothing to do with what I call two weeks ago and promise not to rest until Mubarak protest go.
They also disdain for those who argue that concentrates on the square do not represent the whole of Egypt. "For every Egyptian who is in the plaza, there is a whole family who supported the revolt but can not be in it," he said this morning a young protester. One hour drive to the transition while the regime continues to announce measures to appease the protesters and shut down a little protest.
Egypt has a plan and timetable for a smooth transition and handover, said this morning the vice president and strongman of the regime at this time, Omar Suleiman, after meeting with President Mubarak. Also ensures that the Government did not prosecute the protesters calling for the fall of rais-many youth leaders have been released in recent days, though it continues to detain people.
"The president welcomes the national consensus, confirming that we are in the right direction to overcome the current crisis," Suleiman said after meeting with Mubarak to discuss the process of dialogue between the regime and opposition parties began on Sunday . "It has set a clear roadmap with a timetable for carrying out a peaceful transfer of power and organized," said Suleiman on television after the meeting.
Vice President has stressed "the need to continue the dialogue process" started on Sunday with the opposition. Also, Suleiman has been reported that Mubarak has appointed a committee to amend the constitution. The president "has signed a decree under which a commission whose mission will bring reforms to the Constitution," said Suleiman.
The constitutional reforms will have to do with the length and the limit on presidential mandates. On Sunday, Vice President announced the creation of this commission, in addition to other measures such as increasing the freedom of the press or the release of prisoners "of conscience" after a meeting with representatives of the opposition forces, including the Muslim Brotherhood the Islamist bogeyman used to justify the dictatorship.
Some of the measures that the Mubarak regime, which refuses to fall, "the President alone has announced that it will opt for re-election in September, has taken to survive. On Sunday there was a meeting between Suleiman and the opposition, which outlined reforms. Yesterday, they announced a salary increase for civil servants and a pension increase.
It has also been setting free some leaders of the revolt and announced a review of the results of the December legislative elections, considered a huge fraud.
