The army is the only force which is still organized, united and capable of sponsoring the national consensus among the political parties, she said.
Furthermore, the agreement between the NSF and the Salafists could press the president to make a concession to end the political crisis, she added, referring to the meeting held between the two sides on Wednesday.
However, Ahmad Mahran, chief of a Cairo-based center for political studies, said that "Baradie's call for the defense minister to join the national dialogue is a bid to bring the army back to political life, which would take the country to zero level if people lose confidence in their elected president."
Mahran voiced surprise for Baradie call, despite the oppositions' demands during the transition period for the army to withdraw from politics.
"The military has a bad experience for the army, which lost much of his popularity during that period," he said.
He stressed that there is no need for the army to interfere, noting that a recent consensus between the opposition and al-Nour party is the beginning to break the Muslim Brotherhood's "dominant control of the country."
The consensus will force the brotherhood to reconsider the situation and make compromise, Mahran concluded.
