Pope Tawadros II, who assumed his office in November, said the Islamist constitution “bore a religious slant, and that in itself is discriminatory,” in an interview with The Associated Press.
Tawadros also condemned Mr. Morsi’s characterization of Christians as a minority.
“We are a part of the soil of this nation,” he said, according to AP. “We are not a minority when it comes to value, history and the love of our nation.”
Christians comprise an estimated 10 percent of Egypt’s population.
