[Al Ahram] Youness Makhioun, president of the Salafist Nour Party, has reiterated his party's support for the army-backed roadmap for Egypt's future.
"The Egyptian armed forces are a red line," he stated on Wednesday during a joint presser with Ahmed El-Mohammedanani, Presidential Media Advisor and front man.
"It is a patriotic army and anyone who hopes for its fall is a traitor," Makhioun added.
Supporters of deposed President Mohamed Morsi have repeatedly circulated rumours over splits within the army in protest of Morsi's ouster. Such suggestions have been strenuously denied by the armed forces who have not showed any signs of disunity.
