Egypt must reconcile and stamp out violence, Former Egyptian Finance Minister Samir Radwan told CNN’s Christiane Amanpour on Tuesday, while putting the onus for that reconciliation on the once-again-outlawed Muslim Brotherhood.
“The first challenge is the political stability of the country,” he said. “This is a very daunting task because certainly the Muslim Brotherhood, who lost the power, are not willing to come to terms with that loss. And they continue to raise a big fight, using – resorting to violence.”
The man who spearheaded the fall of the Muslim Brotherhood President Mohamed Morsy was the very leader Morsy had appointed to lead the military: Field Marshall Abdel Fattah el-Sisi.
El-Sisi has now resigned from the military and declared his candidacy for president; elections are set for May 26.
He was pictured on Monday riding around Cairo on a bicycle, having traded his uniform for a more populist track suit.
“He has opened the door for an inclusive society,” Radwan said.
Many, of course, disagree with that statement – chiefly members of the Muslim Brotherhood.
Last week, in one fell swoop, an Egyptian court sentenced 528 members of the Muslim Brotherhood to death on charges related to violent riots last August.
At the time, Shadi Hamid of the Brookings Institution described the move to Amanpour as the “largest mass death sentence in modern Egyptian history.”
“Certainly no Egyptian would wish to see that this is the type of Egypt that they would like to live in,” Radwan said. “But I think it should be put in context.”
Last week, in an interview with Amanpour, the chairman of Egypt’s State Information Service, Salah Abdel Sadek, also urged that the sentence be put “in perspective.”
“There is a very widespread violence, which is threatening the livelihood, the nature of the country,” Radwan said. “Egypt was one of the most peaceful countries you know. And now violence is the name of the game.”
“We must find a way out. There are different experiences in the world like in Ireland, like in South Africa of Mandela, like Spain after the civil war. There are hundreds of experiences we can benefit from.”
Some members of the Muslim Brotherhood have showed willingness to “go one or two steps backward” to reach a settlement, Radwan allowed.
But “the Muslim Brotherhood should really take the initiative – as the white minority in South Africa took the initiative, and started by repenting what they did under apartheid.”
Amanpour quickly struck down his analogy.
“I fully appreciate what you're saying,” she said, “but I'm afraid the last word has to be that the whites in South Africa were not declared illegal. Therefore, there was a reconciliation process. Unfortunately, for your idea, the Muslim Brotherhood has now been declared an outlaw organization.”
I wish the MB burn in hell where they belong, they contributed NOTHING to society. Declaring them illegal should just be the beginning of their fate. CNN, please report the true facts without filters, on the views of the MB their charters, internal objectives and goals. The MB members make a dictator in waiting like al-sisi the logical choice for rational Egyptian citizens.
Whatever they did contribute or not, they were ELECTED.
You do not declare illegal a party that won the election, fair and square. What you are saying do not belong to the realm of logic and order, but to the realm of chaos and injustice.
And you expect Egypt to stabilize ?
Sisi is the elected leader of Egypt. Muslim Brotherhood terrorists were booted out by the Egyptian people. Live with it.
Adolphe Hitler also was elected square and fair. The mb is not a political party. It is a malevolent movement bent on bringing back 7th century fanaticism and obscurantism through subjugation, force and oppression. Women, christians and moderate muslims are destined to become iit's victims. Who are you to tell them they should submit to their terrorism ? Anyway they
experienced it first hand during their 'reign' and decided to resist it and destroy this criminal terrorist group.
Cheers.
Amanpour, you made a quick intelligent PUNCH at the end of your interview....! I could read that on his face..!
These LIARS would do the same even if the elected president were a secular leader. It was MB's mistake to participate in the presidential race. They should have supported a secular and widely acceptable leader as a presidential candidate during this transformation period. With a secular leader in power, these military thugs would have found it difficult to defend a COUP..!
