News:
Kamal Ganzouri has agreed to become Egypt’s prime minister and will form a new government, an Egyptian army spokesman said Thursday.
This development — announced by Lt. Col. Amr Imam — comes days after former Prime Minister Essam Sharaf and his government quit en masse, and days before Monday’s parliamentary elections that Egypt’s military rulers vowed Thursday would go on despite ongoing unrest.
Ganzouri, who was Egypt’s prime minister between 1996 and 1999 under President Hosni Mubarak, could not be reached to confirm his appointment.
