Egypt’s opposition Muslim Brotherhood on Sunday said it had started a dialogue with authorities "to see up to what point they are ready to accept the demands of the people," a statement said.
An official from the Brotherhood, speaking to AFP on condition of anonymity, said talks had started on Saturday morning between them and Egypt's new Vice President Omar Suleiman.
"Keeping in mind the interests of the nation and its institutions and concerned about preserving the country's independence. We began talks to see up to what point they are ready to accept the demands of the people."
