U.N. and West warn rushed Egypt change a risk to Mideast - swissinfo

U.N. and West warn rushed Egypt change a risk to Mideast - swissinfo: "MUNICH (Reuters) - The United Nations on Sunday drove home the warning from Western nations that a transition to democracy in Egypt should not be rushed to avoid worsening the crisis and destabilising the entire Middle East.

U.N. Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon backed up calls at a security conference in Munich from the United States and Europe for a rapid change of power in Egypt followed by a more sedate transition through democracy and eventually free elections.

Ban told reporters he had urged authorities in Cairo 'to make the necessary changes and reforms as soon as possible. I hope the leaders of Egypt heed the calls of their own people.'"


Meanwhile Obama is pushing the transition to be done yesterday with the Muslim Brotherhood at the table of the upcoming regime. Foolish, inept or working against us? ~~ The Munz
