Turkey calls for constitutional democracy in Egypt

None

Turkey urged Egypt's military to pave the way for elections so that a new government can form a constitutional democracy following President Hosni Mubarak's resignation on Friday after nearly three decades in power.

 

"Since the start of the mass demonstrations in Egypt, Turkey has supported the Egyptian public's legitimate demands for democracy and freedom; moreover it has made a call for a peaceful transition to a pluralist and participatory regime based on human rights," a statement issued by Prime Minister Tayyip Erdogan's press office on Saturday said.
