The Egyptian army has given the nation’s first democratically elected president, Mohamed Morsi, an ultimatum: resolve differences with the opposition, or the military will step in and impose its own road map for the country. This comes after millions of Egyptians have taken to the streets demanding President Morsi step down. We discuss recent events in Egypt.

Guests:

Shibley Telhami, Anwar Sadat Professor for Peace and Development at the University of Maryland, senior fellow at the Saban Center for Middle East Policy at the Brookings Institution; and author of "The World Through Arab Eyes: Arab Public Opinion and the Reshaping of the Middle East"

Soraya Sarhaddi Nelson, foreign correspondent for NPR, on assignment in Cairo, Egypt
