Hosni Mubarak, the Egyptian president, has said in a televised address that he will not run for another term and step down at the next election but will stay in office till then.
The next presidential election is scheduled for September. Until now, officials had indicated Mubarak, 82, would likely run for a sixth six-year term of office.
Mubarak said on Tuesday that he would work in the last months of his term to allow the transfer of power.
He said the main priority was the stability of the nation and that he would seek changes to the constitution.

Jordan's King appoints new PM after protests
Jordan's king appoints new PM after protests
Tuesday, February 1 03:32 pm Suleiman al-Khalidi
King Abdullah of Jordan, a close U.S. ally, replaced his prime minister Tuesday following protests inspired by mass demonstrations in Tunisia and Egypt, but the opposition dismissed the move as insufficient. Skip related content
Abdullah asked Marouf Bakhit, a conservative former premier with a military background, to head the government after accepting the resignation of Samir Rifai, whose dismissal has been demanded in a series of protests across the country.
Islamists quickly expressed their anger with the appointment of Bakhit, whose government oversaw local and parliamentary elections in 2007 seen as marred by vote-rigging that left them with a handful of seats in a pro-government assembly.
"This is not a step in the right direction and does not show any intent towards real political reforms or meeting the popular demands for people yearning for greater political freedoms," said Sheikh Hamza Mansour, head of the Islamic Action Front (IAF), the political arm of the Muslim Brotherhood, the country's largest political group.
Under fire from an enraged public over high food prices, Rifai announced wage increases two weeks ago to civil servants and the military in an attempt to restore calm.
But protests continued across Jordan, with demonstrators blaming corruption spawned by free-market reforms for the plight of the country's poor.
Rifai was criticised for pushing a pro-Western reform agenda. His opponents sought to reverse free market reforms they say have cut state support for East Bank Jordanians, the original inhabitants of the country who depend on government support more than Jordanians of Palestinian origin.
"I wouldn't see it (appointment) as a sign of liberalisation," said Rosemary Hollis, professor of Middle East policy studies at London's City University.
"With his previous premiership, (Bakhit) talked the talk of reform but little actually happened."
HIGH GOVERNMENT SPENDING
Many Jordanians hold successive governments responsible for a prolonged recession and rising public debt that hit a record $15 billion this year in one of the Arab world's smallest economies, heavily dependent on foreign aid.
But discontent in recent months has grown as the economic downturn bites and weakens the state's ability to create more jobs in a public sector that has traditionally absorbed poor tribesmen in rural and Bedouin areas.
Jordan has among the highest levels of government spending relative to the size of the economy, which economists privately say accounts for over 40 percent of the country's $20 bln GDP.
Bakhit is expected to form his government in the next few days.
The Islamists and independent liberal groupings have called for constitutional changes to curb the extensive power of the king, who appoints cabinets, approves legislation and can dissolve parliament.

எகிப்தில் திருவிழா
அமெரிக்க அடிவருடி, இஸ்ரேலிய கைக்கூலி எகிப்திய மக்கள் விரோத முபாரக் பாசிச ஆட்சி ஒழிக!
எகிப்தில் ஆட்சி மாற்றத்துக்கான வெகுஜன மக்களின் தன்னியல்பான கிளர்ச்சி வெல்க!
முபாரக் அரசே,
ஆட்சி மாற்றத்துக்காகப் போராடும் எகிப்திய வெகுஜன மக்கள் இயக்கத்தின் மேல் அரச வன்முறையைப் பிரயோகிக்காதே!
போராடும் பொதுமக்களின் சொத்துக்களைச் சூறையாட பொலிஸ் குண்டர்களைப் பயன்படுத்தாதே!
Internet, Mobile Phone பாவனைக்கு விதித்துள்ள தடையை உடனே நீக்கு!
அல் ஜசீரா தொலைக்காட்சி மீது விதித்துள்ள தடையை நீக்கு!
ஒபாமாவின் அமெரிக்காவே,
எகிப்திய மக்கள் விரோத முபாரக் அரசுக்கு வழங்கும் அனைத்து ஆதரவையும் உடனே நிறுத்து!
முபாரக்கை திரை மறைவில் வைத்து பழைய ஆட்சியை புதிய முகங்களில் நடத்தும் சதித்திட்டத்தைக் கைவிடு!
உலகத் தொழிலாளர்களே ஒடுக்கப்பட்ட தேசங்களே
எகிப்தில் ஆட்சி மாற்றத்துக்கான வெகுஜன மக்களின் தன்னியல்பான கிளர்ச்சி வெற்றி அடைய ஆதரவளியுங்கள்!
எகிப்திய உழைக்கும் மக்களின் விடுதலை. ஆட்சி மாற்றாத்தால் அல்ல அரசு மாற்றத்தாலேயே நிறைவேறும் என்பதை நினைவில் வையுங்கள்!
ஏகாதிபத்திய காலனியாதிக்கம் மத்திய கிழக்கில் படிப்படியாக தகர்ந்து வருவதை கண்டு புரட்சியில் நம்பிக்கை பெறுங்கள்!
