did they know that this would happen i think that we if we want to talk about the whole situation and the results that we see in the first once again i'm not using the arab spring as a concept or even revolutions wresting that we are still seeing unfinished processes in the country now the people who were in the streets in tunisia egypt there were young people young and not so young people and the only objective was to get treated the dictator and the regime so they want to treat them dignity and justice and less corruption they were not expecting anything and it was beyond any ideological trend what happened as a second step is the presence of people who were in the opposition and had historical credibility no one can deny the fact that in tunisia in egypt the islamist president they had a popularity and they were tortured and repressed so the first reaction was coming

back to make reference and supporting the people who had this historical tradition which doesn't mean that it's going to stay the same doesn't mean that going through steps is to be seen but what we have seen now when and what we are now witnessing in egypt is still very complex is not yet done i'm not sure even at the time i'm talking to you that the muslim brotherhood are going to win the election i might always almost sure that it's going to be the opposite and we all this process is the coming back of the old regime was a very strong egypt but you know personally i know that you always used the term arab awakening arab spring could you have predicted this sort of an outcome yes anyone who is studying the region and look at what is happening now. knew

and knew that in fact. have a very important role in order countries it's true it's true in libya it's true in tunisia in egypt in syria even today and in other countries if you have to deal with true transparent democracy processes you. have the rule now the rule being the leading force in the country this was not expected when i was asked about this before i was saying thirty percent representing thirty percent and in fact if you look at the parliamentary elections in tunisia they are thirty percent in egypt is exactly the same after the first round of the presidential election it doesn't mean that in the future in the coming future things are not going to be seen that were not expected either which is a kind of controlled democracies and army playing a very important role behind the scenes all strategy can economy interest

controlling the country as we are seeing now we know libya. we are seeing even in yemen because we don't speak very much about yemen and if you go to behind no one is talking about and it's presented as a fight between sunni and shia why does more than this this is a shaken petrol monarchy no petrol in a key should be shaken for anyone because the the interest and the strategic interests huge now in the region so we better keep quiet with what is happening there talking about the strategic interests you know the question that everyone's asking over here could arab appeal this take place without western sponsors so my position on this is mixed by saying if and this is why i'm using the concept of i think that's something very specific happened over the last. years

first to speak about you know people starting to be in the streets and changing everything. influence and nothing done beforehand i think this is simplistic and then tries to be naive i have studied what happened then we have interacted bloggers and cyber dissidents we were trained we've been in the west to push towards this so there is a clear we're coming from western countries to change dictatorships or to change at least what was happening within the regimes so that's clear now to see that everything was under control everything is coming from the west i think is going too far we also have to take the political side of the story but the economy side of the story for the americans as well as for the european countries they needed a change in the regime in order to keep the markets why we have new actors in the market and many five new actors that directly the monopoly of this relationship

between the middle east and north african countries and the west china india russia africa and latin american countries six one which is turkey so it's complex and we need to get celeste naive understanding i'm not saying that that's a big conspiracy i'm saying now it's now the time we can see if the people industries are able to go towards true democracy processes by refusing to be under control and to have democracy under control this is one position and the second one for me which is very important is there is something which has changed over the last two years is this intellectual review in the arab or that it's possible we can remove a dictator i would like to speak a little bit in detail that egypt right now the constitution is still not drafted it's going to be drafted. a much later said the president is going to be elected

and he's now he's going to know about his powers only after he's elected and the constitution also of course depend. on who is elected the president can even talk about democracy with this given fact you know we call it and i think that you know i'm very tough was this. studying what is happening if inductively you call was the last election i'm sure to tell you the truth that the last election was we will be transparent and they have a problem with the way it was done just even before who can be in and who is of the way these candidates was chosen by whom and then you come to the committee that has to work on the constitution and this was stopped so you elect someone as a president with executive power without having a clear framework or religious leader power and do we destroy the stupid structure they really weird and i think that this is where we are now and we were told no

just we are going to solve the problem with the presidential election that's not going to happen and look at what is happening now so we have even people saying we have to stop the whole the process because even the fact that we have someone who is representing the all regime the how come the here where they were saying that we need to put in the constitution that the people who are from the old regime cannot present themselves for the next ten years but you can't come with this because it's not in the constitution and is going to be written after the election it's a mess there is no transparency and how can you speak about democracy procedures if there is no transparency in the way it's put so in egypt i'm very worried about what is going to happen talk about chafee a former egyptian prime minister under mubarak he still has a lot of support i mean a lot of people were shocked that he actually got to the runoff does that mean that there's still a lot of people in. two are actually favorable aren't supporting the old regime so

if you think that the elections were completely transparent you have some questions to ask because not only he got twenty percent but if you look at all the other. he also got almost twenty percent so it means that approximately forty five to fifty percent of. all of this to come to this result is strange and then you see how the candidates were put you know almost being inside and then lead they removed him and they kept someone who is ready and my sense of all this is that we are not dealing with a transparent process we are dealing with calculation and calculation means that i think that never from behind the scenes the army lost control of the situation so this is made sense and it might be that even the muslim brotherhood way used to be

the visible legitimacy to something which is happening from behind the scenes so they were the instruments of the coming back of the regime or the instruments of change do you think there is a chance that he could become president i mean chappell yes i think that there is a great change that he can come and that people are going out this happening if you read the newspapers in egypt now what he said is you know brotherhood going to be trust they want to and they have been playing with the army so there is a campaign here so i think that it might be that he will get the majority and the muslim brotherhood will be in a situation that this report the process and the way involved in the process they will be unable to say it was not transparent because if the rise in the first round so makes sense here is shafique might be the next president i don't know what is going to happen with the people but. demonstrations my sense would be dead the

army's going to be very tough with the demonstrations. being elected now if the muslim brotherhood are coming which i think it's less likely it's not even fifty fifty i don't think it's fifty fifty i really think it's a game where the army has already decided that it is the right one to promote if that's the case if he's elected president do you think you will pardon barack i think that this business about mubarak is strange because the people are not reading the rules what is known is you know all the others have been acquitted and then nothing against them and he's three and there is a rule in egypt beyond. you call and b. so you are going to be left and now they are appealing again. condemnation and he's eighty three it's very unlikely that it will take one year

and he's going to be lost in the whole process so i think that this kind of condemnation is much more a symbol to show that we are doing something against mubarak but the implementation keeping safe all the interest because when we speak about the egypt on not only speaking about power and military power we are speaking about huge economy interest because the very very involved in many contracts many economy interest. is in fact the very essence of corruption in egypt tariq ramadan thank you very much to you thanks.

started without a single striker and could use the same strategy against arlen. if you keep moving and you have serious results giving a reference to the french it can work but it is option but it worked when. he scored a great goal not being a striker but great movement so i think it's it's not about what system do you shits about how do you. how do you play them. i mean the result is good no might normally you say that there that tactic was fantastic on the air with their money or big bush was the right decision so. but before that game it's a face surprise group seen leaders croatia in paul's nine and the zurich prince harry is full of praise for their opponents especially after watching them thrash arlen three one in their first match. those two they can change this used to during
