EGYPT: New ministers sworn in, many remain in power

A swearing in ceremony for Egypt's new ministers broadcast by state television Tuesday showed many officials remain in power.

Egypt's defense, interior, foreign, finance and justice ministers were unchanged, state television confirmed.

The restructuring included changing the veteran oil minister, as well as introducing politicians who had been opposed to the rule of former President Hosni Mubarak, who stepped down from office on Feb. 11 after widespread protests.
