[Ennahar] The Egyptian opponent Mohamed ElBaradei, who returned to Egypt to support young people who started the revolt against Hosni Mubarak said Sunday he was not invited to the dialogue between the Mohammedan Brotherhood and the government, describing the discussions as "opaque"."I was not invited to participate in negotiations at this dialogue, but I'm following what's happening," ElBaradei said on NBC.
This is the first time a dialogue between the official Egyptian government and the powerful Mohammedan Brotherhood movement, strong enemy of the regime.
Discussions also gather representatives of the Wafd party (Liberal), the Tagammu (left), groups of young pro-democracy who launched the protest movement, and independent political figures and businessmen.
ElBaradei has found the process "opaque". Nobody knows who is talking to whom for the time (...). The process is managed by the Vice-President Suleiman, the army and that's the problem".
"The president is a military, vice-president is a military and the Prime Minister is a military. I think if you really want to build confidence, it is essential to involve civilians and that is why I suggested implement a transition plan under which a presidential council consisting of three persons, comprising the army, would head a transitional government," said ElBaradei.
