Possible Deal between Yemeni Government, Shiite Houthi Rebels
BLITZER: Got breaking news coming out of Yemen. I want to go to Nick Paton Walsh who's in Sanaa for us, the only Western journalist there. What are you learning, Nick?</s>NICK PATON WALSH, CNN SENIOR INTERNATIONAL CORRESPONDENT: Wolf, what we have now are the early signs of a deal potentially between the current Yemeni government and the Shiite Houthi rebels who have taken over the key institutions here. This is the first time we've seen something laid out that looks like a road map out of the crisis. We don't know if these are agreed to yet. We've seen a draft of the deal. I've spoken to an official that outlined key points. In short, it's who would get edits, changes to the new draft of the new constitution. They would effectively see that altered to suit their demand. In exchange, the government would have key institutions released by the militia that have swept into the presidential palace, around the presidential residency as well. They would have the immediate relief of chief of staff who, over 72 hours ago, was kidnapped from the capital city, Sanaa. This is the early stages. We're getting the details from twitter account of the spokesperson of the Washington, D.C., embassy for Yemen and on the state news agencies. These details could change and fall apart. But since this broke out, it's been about who's been in control on the streets. This is the first time we've heard of the deal, points of the deal. If you look at it on the surface, it appears to more or less conform to the full demands put up. We could be seeing some that potentially calms this down, but still early days yet -- Wolf?</s>BLITZER: Very early indeed. A lot could certainly go wrong. Nick, we'll stay in touch. Be careful over there. The President Obama of the United States struck a different tone last night, one some loved and others not so much. More on that when we come back.
