Egypt Army gives Mursi 48 hours to share power - Monday July 01,2013

Egypt's armed forces handed Islamist President Mohamed Morsi a virtual ultimatum to share power on Monday July 01,2013 giving feuding politicians 48 hours to compromise or have the army impose its own road map for the country.

A dramatic military statement broadcast on state television declared the nation was in danger after millions of Egyptians took to the streets on Sunday to demand that Morsi quit and the headquarters of the ruling Muslim Brotherhood were ransacked.
