Cairo coup: what the future holds for Egypt?i

Following the ousting of Egyptian President Morsi in a military coup,The Telegraph's correspondent in Cairo explains what is next for the country
........
Anti-Mohammed Morsi protesters were still celebrating in Cairo on Thursday morning following the ouster of Egypt's first democratically elected president, who was overthrown by the military on Wednesday evening.
Morsi was ousted after just one year in office by the same kind of Arab Spring uprising that brought the Islamist leader to power.
The armed forces announced they would install a temporary civilian government to replace Islamist President Mohammed Morsi,who denounced the action as a "full coup" by the generals.
They also suspended the Islamist-drafted constitution and called for new elections.
Richard Spencer,The Telegraph's correspondent in Cairo, explains that the future of Egypt depends on two things;"whether the military is going to oversee a quick,smooth transition to democracy",and how the Muslim Brotherhood reacts to the ousting.
As Richard Spencer says,"is it going to become more conciliatory or is it going to retreat into itself" and become more violent?
A peaceful standoff is the best hope for the moment, that will,one hopes,gradually morph into a political dialogue
Gen Abdulfattah al-Sisi talked down suggestions he would run for president
