ElBaradei Writes In Weekly Dostor How To Have A Real Political Reform in Egypt

Dr. ElBaradei had just finished writing this article exclusively to Al Dostor when he spoke to Foreign policy. The former chief of IAEA writes in detailed steps how to save Egypt through a real democratic reform from his point in view in the popular independent newspaper.

These steps are :

1//Forming a committee from independent and respectable personalities to organize the presidential elections and supervise on its neutrality and independence.

2//Voting through the national number ID in order to make sure from the validity of registered voters list. "You know to make sure that there are no dead people voting for the NDP"

3//The Egyptians abroad must the have the right to vote in our embassies like in other countries "According to ElBaradei there are more than 7 million Egyptian living abroad ,7 million Egyptians inside the country had voted in the last presidential elections"

4// To ban the right of candidacy on all those currently in the executive authority and to elect all the representatives of the public in the Political field "Not by appointment" to insure the separation of authorities and the right of the citizens in choosing their representatives.

5// There should be equal media coverage for all presidential candidates especially in the official media whose time has come to turn in to an independent fourth authority that supervises by its turn the other three authorities.

6// Complete judicial supervision on the elections

7// Complete international supervision

ElBaradei believes that we should remove articles "88,76 and 77" from our current constitution at least one year before the elections , we still have time now . We also should form a  committee from experts, politicians , lawmakers and thinkers to write new constitution.

ElBaradei believe that both the people and leadership should cooperate to implement these steps to save Egypt , of course he knows better than me that "our leadership" is not interested in his views nor in saving Egypt in the first place.

Dr. ElBaradei is said to be coming back to Cairo on the 20th of February insh Allah.

  1. El Baradei said yesterday, that he does not want to be President of Egypt, however, he runs for office just for his supporters. :)

    Egypt needs a leader who wants to lead and who knows what he wants.

    El Baradei is none of this.

  3. I have a feeling if El Baradei says that as Anonymous 12:21 mentions, it's mostly because he knows under the current dictatorship neither he or anyone else has a real chance. He's saying, ok but I at least want to make a point. And frankly, the points in the post above are good points. Now, if the system can actually be opened up to give anyone a genuine fair chance to run against the Mubarak dynasty - or whoever else tries to insert themself after Hosni - then ElBaradei or anyone else will have to think in a different manner about serious candidacy.

  4. Dear Zeinobia, in that case El Baradei would be a perfect candidate :)
