EGYPT “No party to Be Excluded in Political Process,” Egypt Prime Minister Designate Says Cairo (SIS) – The Prime Minister designate of Egypt, Hazem El Biblawy, said today in Cairo he will tomorrow meet the nominees for ministerial portfolios , adding that what was done in the past few days was just searching for nominees who can shoulder responsibility and pilot Egypt to safety. In statements to Al-Ahram daily, he said consultations could last for five days as some nominees might refuse the post which means searching for other substitutes. He also said the new government will give top priority to security and economy, adding no political party will be excluded. As for keeping posts for ministers belonging to the Freedom and Justice Party, the political arm of Muslim Brotherhood, the Minister said he will not give attention to political affiliation noting that the main criterion is efficiency and credibility. Finally, Mr. Beblawy said he finds difficulty in getting unanimity of all Egyptians on his government and that it will be difficult to respond to expectations of all citizens.
