Crisis in Egypt: Obama Calls for immediate start of change

President Obama has called Hosni Mubarak, who refuse to cease the will of the Egyptian population. The political transition must take place immediately. The U.S. came here only a supervisory role. Washington - "The whole world looks to Egypt," said U.S. President Barack Obama in his highly anticipated speech on the situation in the country.

He called for an immediate start of political change: "The transition process in the Egyptian government is now beginning," said Obama in Washington. Egyptian ruler Hosni Mubarak should no longer deny the will of the people. He had previously spoken twice with Mubarak, "Obama said. He had urged him to "listen to what puts forward the Egyptian people, and to reach a verdict." The Egyptian president had to ask in particular how he would make the political transition "effective, durable and legitimate." In his talks he had against Mubarak also made clear that "will not work for a return to the old conditions." There can be no oppression, no use of force and no blockage of more information.


The U.S. president also stressed that it was not in the United States to decide what to do. The U.S. could only emphasize the basic principles that must be met for such a period of political transition.
