After several cabinet ministers quit in an expression of solidarity with demonstrators in Tahrir Square who are seeking an end to his rule, agreement to substantial “power-sharing” looks like Morsi’s only route to avoid a collision with the military and his inevitable ouster.

A military takeover in Egypt would force the Arab world’s biggest nation into a new and uncertain phase of political crisis with clear geopolitical ramifications.
