One month has passed since the presidential palace assassination attempt on President Saleh and the political arena is as empty as ever.
Opposition parties have just started considering forming a transitional council while President Saleh insists that he will lead the transition process in Yemen.
The international community is lost on how to react in the very fragile country of Yemen.

Reports varied on how serious President Saleh's injuries are, but all reports have estimated that Saleh would not be back to Yemen in the next three months.

Critics feel that the political stalemate will only lead to further crises in the country and possibly a civil war.
