While Mubarak did attempt to hand over control to Vice President Omar Suleiman, the transfer did not last long; Suleiman withdrew from the political scene shortly after Mubarak resigned. Suleiman's rapid rise to power in Egypt was merely a political ploy by Mubarak in order to hold on to power; when Mubarak was ousted, so was Suleiman. Suleiman was even the target of an assassination attempt on February 20th, which clearly indicates that he has lost popular support. Currently, the military holds the power in Egypt, and Defense Minister Mohamed Tantawi is considered to be one of the most powerful figures in that institution. It remains to be seen if that power will be transferred to a new, democratic government.
