Egyptian President-elect Mohamed Mursi policy adviser has said that the country's new leader will appoint a vice president who is Christian and another Vice President who is a woman in an attempt to execute a strategy of "inclusiveness, inclusiveness, inclusiveness," CNN reported. "For the first time in Egyptian history – not just modern but in all Egyptian history – a woman will take that position," Deif said. "And it's not just a vice president who will represent a certain agenda and sect, but a vice president who is powerful and empowered, and will be taking care of critical advising within the presidential cabinet."Speaking to CNN's Christian Amanpour, Mursi said that the role of women in their society is clear."Women's rights are equal to men. Women have complete rights, just like men. There shouldn't be any kind of distinction between Egyptians except that is based on the constitution and the law."When asked if he could guarantee that he would retain the law that makes it a crime to sexually abuse women, Morsi said, "It will be impossible to allow this kind of abuse in the shadow of a constitutional state, a lawful state, a state that protects the dignity of a person."
