Everything’s going according to plan.

(Almasry Alyoum) — The Muslim Brotherhood’s Freedom and Justice Party demanded the right to form the new national salvation government following early indicators that the party won the most seats in parliament.

“It is the majority in parliament that has the right to form the government,” said the party’s legal adviser Ahmed Abu Baraka.

He also said that Major General Mamdouh Shahin, member of the military council, was wrong when he said the parliamentary majority does not have the right to form the government. “Shahin probably meant to calm the public by saying that,” he said.

As to whether this would lead to a clash between the Brotherhood and the ruling military council, Abu Baraka dismissed the possibility as inconsequential.

“We have always had clashes with the military,” he said.
