CAIRO, Egypt - Islamist Mohammed Morsi, son of a peasant farmer, was formally sworn as the first democratically elected president of Egypt on Saturday. The country had 60 years of de facto military rule.
Egypt may attain the longtime goal of becoming an Islamic state if Morsi succeeds. If not, the military will continue for years or decades its stranglehold on the country that is now reluctant in giving up assumed power after the ousting of Hosni Mubarak.
Nobel Peace Laureate Mohammed ElBaradei tweeted, "Now, the time for building has come, to achieve the revolution's goals." He is also top pro-democracy advocate of the country.
