A basis for cooperation .. "Brotherhood of Egypt" supports the opposition document, Muhammad Ali

The Muslim Brotherhood in Egypt announced its support for the "Egyptian Accord Document" announced by artist and businessman Mohamed Ali a few days ago.

"The group sees in the document an appropriate basis for the cooperation of loyal people of the homeland and their solidarity to displace the military coup, and the establishment of a democratic civil state that chooses its institutions and its president through free and fair elections, and maintains the independence of the national decision and the capabilities of the country, and recovers what has been lost In it. "

The group called on all national powers to meet together in a single row through which to work towards achieving the goals of the Egyptian people's revolution in living, freedom, social justice and human dignity.

Fahmy said that "the group pledges to God, then the great Egyptian people, to continue the march of struggle with its honorable sons, without advancing on them or delaying them."

The statement is the first procedural step announced by the group, a few weeks before the anniversary of the January 2011 revolution, after confirming on December 12 this assignment of what it considers the legitimacy of the president, following the death of President Mohamed Morsi months ago.

At that time, the group said in a statement that "with the death of Morsi, the legitimacy will be restored to the Egyptian people, who have the inherent right to it, giving it to whomever he wishes from his sons through free and fair elections."

On Friday, Muhammad Ali announced a document that included eight general principles and 11 articles of work priorities during the next stage that include that the system of government in Egypt be a civil, democratic, peaceful transfer of power, activating transitional justice and societal reconciliation, regime change, and the release of political prisoners.

This document comes in implementation of an invitation issued by the opposition contractor last November 20 to announce what he called the national project for the whole opposition.

The Egyptian authorities have neither commented on the document nor the group’s statement, except that they usually regard Muhammad Ali as a traitor to the homeland, and the Brotherhood is banned.
