Egyptian President Mohamed Morsi has rejected an ultimatum from his country’s armed forces to respond to massive protests or face removal from office. On Monday, the Egyptian military gave Morsi 48 hours to outline a “roadmap” for reconciliation after millions of Egyptians took to the streets to oppose his government. A leaked roadmap shows the military is prepared to overthrow Morsi, scrap a draft constitution, and impose a government headed by an army general. But in a televised speech Tuesday night, Morsi asserted his right to serve out his term as the first democratically elected president in Egypt’s history. The Egyptian military’s deadline expires today, leaving the country in a state of crisis.
