Azerbaijan , Baku, Sept. 26 / Trend A. Isgandarov/
About 35 percent of Egyptians say they support the Muslim Brotherhood, according to a survey by Press office of the Egyptian Cabinet of Ministers, Assabeel reported.
The survey showed about 35 percent of Egyptians support the Muslim Brotherhood, while 21 percent oppose it.
The Muslim Brotherhood is one of the largest Islamist organizations in Egypt. It was founded in 1928 and banned in 1954.
About 58 percent of Egyptians oppose candidate from other religion to be elected a president in the country.
At the same time nearly 78 percent of those attended in the survey said they don't see relations between Muslims and Christians as a source of problems, while 50 percent consider foreign forces are behind the last sectarian violence in Egypt.
Since the toppling of the Mubarak regime, the reality of the country's sectarian division has been on display with escalating tensions and more frequent acts of violence directed at Egypt's Christian minority, the largest non-Muslim religious minority in the Arab world. This violence has been particularly disappointing when contrasted with the scenes of communal solidarity that marked Egypt's 18-day uprising.
