[11 July 2012] Dangerous days ahead for Egypt - English
Egypt's highest court has overturned Egyptian President Mohammad Morsi's decree reinstating the North African county's parliament.
The ruling of the Supreme Constitutional Court was announced on Tuesday, hours after the parliament reconvened briefly on the same day by a presidential decree, the Associated Press reported.
On Sunday, Morsi issued a decree reinstating the dissolved parliament in defiance of the Supreme Council of the Armed Forces (SCAF), which dissolved the parliament on June 16 in line with an earlier ruling by the Supreme Constitutional Court.
The move to reinstate the parliament is the first showdown between Morsi and the country's powerful military.
Press TV has conducted an interview with Nabil Mikhail, professor of political science at the George Washington University to further discuss the issue. Show Less >>
