King Albert of the Belgians to abdicate?

Just a rumor.  Belgian magazine Soir is "reporting" that King Albert II will abdicate on July 20, the eve of Belgian's National Day, and Philippe will succeed to the throne on November 15,  King's Day.

Government officials have refused to comment on the oft-discussed topic of the king's abdication.

Didn't they report this in March of 2012?
