Mr Mursi has promised to restore the parliament dissolved by the military. In a speech at Cairo University, the Muslim Brotherhood politician said the army must respect the people's will. He will have to sort out a very difficult relationship with an entrenched(根深蒂固的) military, regional analyst Magdi Abdelhadi says. The regime of former President Hosni Mubarak is still largely intact and many in it will not work with the new president, he adds. Overthrown in February last year after mass pro-democracy demonstrations, Mubarak was sentenced to life imprisonment at the beginning of this month for failing to prevent the killing of protesters by the security forces. Egypt, the biggest Arab nation, is a key US ally in the region, as well as one of the few states in the Arab world to maintain diplomatic relations with Israel. 'Promise kept' Parliament was dissolved by Field Marshal Tantawi's Supreme Council of the Armed Forces (Scaf), which assumed legislative powers under a controversial "interim constitutional declaration". But on Saturday Scaf handed over power to Mr Mursi after a military parade at the Hykestep military base on the outskirts of Cairo. "We have fulfilled our promise which we made before God and the people," Field Marshal Tantawi said at the hand-over ceremony. "We now have an elected president, who assumed Egypt's rule through a free and direct vote reflecting the will of Egyptians." The field marshal, who saluted Mr Mursi and shook hands with him several times, decorated the new president with the Shield of the Armed Forces, the country's highest honour. In his speech earlier at Cairo University, Mr Mursi said: "The army is now returning to its original role, protecting the nation and its borders." 本文章由网域收集整理
