Nasser declares he will stay president amid Arab nations' doubt
Gamel Abdel Nasser told the Egyptian National Assembly he will bow to the will of the people and remain president of the United Arab Republic. The longtime leader who rose from a military officer to dominating Arab politics faces a shifting mood after a crushing defeat this week. He commanded the Free Officers coup in 1952 and led Egypt through attempts to end colonial rule, asserting pan Arab nationalism and plans for the Aswan Dam. Born January 15, 1918, in Beni Mur, Assiut Province, Nasser's career saw battles in Palestine and repeated near-assassination attempts, yet he remained a central symbol for Egyptian sovereignty.
