Fakhri Abdel Nour on Brotherhood and Army Role
Former Minister of Tourism and Industry, Monir Fakhry Abdel Nour, spoke about his reasons for believing that the Egyptian army decided to stay away from political affairs after the January 25 Revolution. He explained that communication with members of the Military Council, especially General Mohamed El-Ashram, revealed that the army was not planning to directly intervene in the government but intended to support civilian forces temporarily. He also emphasized that the statements made by military leaders at the end of 2012 and the beginning of 2013 clearly indicated their readiness to assist in facing the Muslim Brotherhood's rule. This prompted some civilian groups, including the National Salvation Front, to organize protests and expect that the army would not delay in responding. In summary, Abdel Nour viewed the army’s involvement as the only hope for civilian forces to oust the Muslim Brotherhood from power, and he did not trust the ability of civilian parties alone to achieve that.
