"Mr President, the departure of Hosni Mubarak signals the transition towards a pluralist democracy responding to the aspirations of the Egyptian people.
The Egyptian armed forces now have the responsibility of leading their country, in a short period of time, towards genuine democracy, the rule of law with an independent judiciary, good governance and accountability on suspected cases of corruption. The military leadership is cautioned not to disappoint the youth, who were at the forefront of the demonstrations and whose representatives should be called upon to play their role in building democracy during the transition.
The message of Egypt is a message for the whole Arab world. The Arab countries are our partners; we have no intention of patronising them or imposing anything from the outside. However, the message for them, as sent by the Egyptians and the Tunisians, is: ‘Reform and reform now. Democratise, govern well, fight corruption or face the wrath of the people.’
This message is not only for the Arab world. Yesterday it was relayed in Diyarbakir in Turkey, and in Teheran and other Iranian cities. The people can do it!"@en1
