Mubarak claims Obama 'does not understand Egyptian culture' | World news | The Guardian: "Egyptian president Hosni Mubarak refused yesterday to bow to pressure at home and abroad to stand down immediately, claiming that, though he was fed up and would like to go, he feared chaos if he did so.
Mubarak, in the first major interview since the protests began, expressed no sense of betrayal over President Barack Obama's call on Tuesday for him to begin the transition to democracy 'now'. But there was a hint of resentment when he said Obama did not understand Egyptian culture and the trouble that would ensue if he left office immediately.
'I am fed up. After 62 years in public service, I have had enough. I want to go,' Mubarak said in an interview with ABC's Christiane Amanpour. 'If I resign today, there will be chaos.'"
