Activists, called for the formation of a presidential council from several members that represent all the community categories “Leftist – Liberal – Muslim Brotherhood – Salafi – Coptic – Military” in a statement. They also called for the implementation of the political isolation law, stressing the need to form a coalition government from all political powers,“salvation government,” for a transitional period of six months, and to draft the constitution by a national group during this period, then to carry out presidential elections after the duties and powers of the president have been determined in the constitution.
