"The political process in post-revolutionary Egypt is no longer part of the logical scenario and the developments are undesired," says politologist Levon Melik-Shahnazaryan with confidence.

According to him, the Egyptian military forces don't intend to hand over power to the Islamist civil society due to "fear of the West".

"Even though there are many soldiers that share the idea of Islamism, they are more submissive to the forces that organized and provoked the so-called "Arab Spring". Now those soldiers think if they hand over power, they will be held responsible for all that happened in the past year," Levon Melik-Shahnazaryan told "A1=".

According to the politologist, the snap elections declared to be held on November 28 will definitely be under the supervision of military forces in the most brutal way. "If nobody interferes and we see fair and transparent elections, the Islamist forces will receive at least 75-80 percent of the votes, but that doesn't favor the soldiers," he said.

However, the politologist draws attention to the fact that Islamic forces are coming to power in all Arab countries where a revolution or social upheaval is held "through a struggle led by revolutionaries with no leader".

Levon Melik-Shahnazaryan is certain that the revolution that began in Egypt will definitely spread toward the other Arab countries regardless of whether the country is pro-Western or pro-Eastern.

The politologist rules out the international community's intervention in such developments and predicts that it will wait for the end of the storm.

"I think the Genie that has come out of the bottle should get tired and relax. There will be a lot of bloodshed, and only after that will different forces come to terms with the force that will have the opportunity to make pledges," Levon Melik-Shahnazaryan said.
