During his time in office, Morsi developed a close
relationship with Prime Minister Erdogan of Turkey. This political alliance has
certainly raised many eyebrows within the leadership of the Egyptian Armed
Forces. They were very much aware of the treatment reserved by Erdogan and his
party to the Turkish generals and admirals and they could foresee the same kind
of fate befalling on them, sooner or later. For many undecided top officers
this growing proximity between Cairo and the party in power in Ankara became reason
enough to convince them that inaction was no option. It would be rather a fatal
mistake.
