President Mursi said he would advocate for social justice, freedom and mutual respect and sought to placate Egypt's Christian minority who are concerned they will be discriminated against under the new leadership.
"We are all Egyptians, both Muslims and Christians, with great civilisations and that is how we will remain. We will fight all those who will try to interfere with our unity, we will have to show the world we will have a revolution of development, peace, and dignity for all Egyptians," President Mursi said.
He has resigned his membership of the Muslim Brotherhood. More at the World Today.
