Is Mubarak on the brink?

Ben Sutherland | 16:28 UK time, Thursday, 10 February 2011

This topic was discussed on World Have Your Say on 10 February 2011. Listen to the programme.

There is a mass of speculation that Egypt's president Hosni Mubarak may leave office this evening (Egyptian time).

The latest we have at the time of writing is that Mubarak is to make an address on national television.

A senior member of Egypt's governing party, Hossan Badrawi, has told the 成人论坛 he "hopes" Mr Mubarak will transfer power to Vice-President Omar Suleiman.

And the US Central Intelligence Agency says there is a "strong likelihood" that Mr Mubarak will step down soon.
