Deputy Prime Minister Yehia al-Gamal said that Mohamed el-Baradei's paper on the basic principles and rights could end controversy over the constitution and elections. He said that el- Baradei, the former director of the IAEA and likely presidential hpeful, is a loyal and serious figure. "I do not think the military council is going to postpone elections. We are, however, still ruled by a constitutional decision," said al-Gamal yesterday during a discussion by the Egyptian and American alliance. Al-Gamal visited the Muslim Brotherhood (MB), and said he has old ties with them and that he believes in the right to have a variety of connections.
