New President of Yemen Abd Rabbuh Mansur Al-Hadi


Pictured above the new President of Yemen Abd Rabbuh Mansur Al-Hadi. He replaced the old Yemeni president Ali Abdullah Saleh who was head of the country for 33 years but was forced to step down after a year of violent protests calling for an end to his oppressive regime.
