Burns is one member of a "quartet" of diplomats trying to negotiate with the Egyptian military and Brotherhood. EU envoy Bernadino Leon and the foreign ministers of Qatar and the United Arab Emirates also met with el-Shater.

"There seems to be a window where the two different parties of the conflict are allowing for new mediation efforts," H.A. Hellyer, an expert on Egypt at the Brookings Institution, said. "That's a change."

The Brotherhood had strongly denied the meeting took place, an apparent attempt to keep any mediation efforts under wraps. Publicly, the group says it is not negotiating and will end its protests if Mohamed Mosi is reinstated as president.

After ABC News initially posted news of the meeting on Twitter, a Brotherhood spokesman called an ABC News reporter and acknowledged that el-Shater met Burns, but called it a "swift exchange" that lasted only 10 minutes.

"It was not a real meeting," Gehad el-Haddad told ABC News.

The United States is furiously mediating between the military and Brotherhood, trying to help Egypt stabilize after the military takeover a month ago. Egypt has long been the United States' most important Arab ally, and U.S. officials are eager to see the military avoid any steps that could lead to civil war.

On two occasions in the past month, the Brotherhood says, soldiers opened fire on crowds, killing more than 140 people. After the latest incident, the United States faced heavy pressure to cut the $1.3 billion in military aid and $250 million of humanitarian assistance, something the White House has strongly resisted.

The United States has sent not only its second-highest diplomat to Egypt, but President Obama dispatched Sens. John McCain, R-Ariz., and Lindsey Graham, R-S.C., to Cairo.

The heavy U.S. mediation attempts have drawn a strong rebuke from the head of the military.

Gen. Abdel Fattah el-Sissi, considered the most powerful man in Egypt, told the Washington Post in a rare interview that the United States has not providing enough support, despite the threat of civil war.

"You left the Egyptians. You turned your back on the Egyptians, and they won't forget that," said el-Sissi, whom the paper described as "indignant."

"Now you want to continue turning your backs on Egyptians?"

On the one hand, Sissi's comments show how the United States has alienated both sides in a country that is increasingly polarized. El-Haddad, the Brotherhood spokesman, has said the United States "failed to stand up for principles" and had approved overthrowing Morsi, who was the country's first democratically elected president.
