Euro News: 'Cairo in Uproar Over President Mohamad Morsi's Plan to Rule by Decree'


Source:Euro News- in Cairo, Egypt.

"Euro News: Cairo is in uproar following President Mursi's announcement that he will rule by decree until a new parliament is installed.
Our correspondent Mohammed Shaikhibrahim is in the Egyptian capital:

"The protest transformed into running battle between police and demonstrators on Mohammed Mahmud Street. At least ten people have been injured and rushed to hospital. Police are firing tear gas rounds in an attempt to disperse the crowds.
Protesters say the demonstrations will escalate in coming hours and continue into the night.
Egyptian security forces have formed a cordon around the Interior Ministry to prevent the crowds from moving on the government building."

From Euro News 

"Euronews (styled on-air in lowercase as euronews) is a European television news network, headquartered in Lyon, France. The network began broadcasting on 1 January 1993 and covers world news from a European perspective.

The majority of Euronews (88%) is owned by Portuguese investment management firm Alpac Capital,[2][3][4] with the rest partly owned by several European and North African public and state-owned broadcasting organizations.

It is a provider of livestreamed news, which can be viewed in most of the world via its website, on YouTube, and on various mobile devices and digital media players."

In other words: rule by executive order. Well, at least this will the give the Parliament more incentive to form and organize, so they can represent a check on President Morsi's power.
