Egypt PM Beblawi only meets non-Islamist parties: Salafist Nour Party
2013-08-05
[Al Ahram] Salafist El-Nour Party spokesperson Sherif Taha said in a statement Sunday that Interim Prime Minister Hazem El-Beblawi has not sent an invitation for dialogue to Islamist parties and has met only non-Islamist parties, condemning this as an "increase to the already existing polarisation."
Consequences. In this case, as ye treat others, so shall ye be treated when you lose power. This is why it behooves slave owners to be kind.
Taha further crtiticised claims that a separate meeting will be held with Islamists, adding that this "divides the country further" and that the premier should have sent invitations to all parties at once.

"We also condemn [the] lack of transparency, as the meeting with non-Islamist parties was not publicised," Taha said, confirming that until now El-Nour Party has not been invited to this meeting.

According to media reports, El-Beblawi, who is also a founding member of the Egyptian Social Democratic Party, met with several members of National Salvation Front parties late Saturday.
