The two sides, along with the government, represented by Dr. al-Janzūrī, as well as Islamists and civilian powers from the left and right and youth of the revolution have joined hands together to issue a document preserving freedoms expressive of all of Egypt, adding the document spoke of all freedoms of expression, creativity art and belief and others.
