埃及鎮壓招致譴責國際社會呼籲剋制
The Egyptian government's deadly crackdown on supporters of former Islamist President Mohamed Morsi has drawn condemnation from leaders of Muslim nations who backed the ousted leader.
European powers urged the military-backed interim government and its Islamist opponents to avoid an escalation of violence and return to a political dialogue.
Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan described Wednesday's crackdown by Egyptian security forces on pro-Morsi protest camps in Cairo as a "massacre." He urged the U.N. Security Council and the Arab League to act immediately to stop it.
Turkish President Abdullah Gul accused the Egyptian government of staging an armed intervention against civilians and called that "unacceptable." Egyptian authorities said some of the protesters were armed and fired at security forces.
Ankara was one of the strongest international critics of the Egyptian military's decision to oust Morsi on July 3, one year after he took office as Egypt's first democratically elected leader.
The military said it acted in response to what it called the will of the people after mass protests by secular Egyptians who accused Mr. Morsi of being anti-democratic.
A spokesman for U.N. Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon said the U.N. chief condemns the violence in Egypt in the strongest terms, and regrets that Egyptian authorities chose to use force against the mostly Islamist demonstrations.
However, the spokesman also said the U.N. chief also is "well aware that the vast majority of the Egyptian people [are] weary of disruptions to normal life caused by demonstrations and counter-demonstrations, and want their country to go forward peacefully in an Egyptian-led process."埃及政府對前總統穆爾西的支持者進行鎮壓，造成多人死傷之後，支持穆爾西的穆斯林國家紛紛對埃及進行譴責。
歐洲國家敦促軍隊支持下的埃及臨時政府和伊斯蘭主義反對派避免暴力升級，並恢復政治對話。
土耳其總理埃爾多安指責埃及安全部隊星期三對穆爾西支持者的鎮壓是“屠殺”。他敦促聯合安理會和阿拉伯聯盟立即採取行動制止。土耳其總統古爾指責說，埃及政府對平民進行暴力干預是不能接受的。
埃及當局說，有些抗議者攜帶武器，並且向安全部隊開槍。
埃及軍方七月3號在埃及首位民選領導人穆爾西任職一年之後罷免了他的總統職務。在國際上，土耳其是這一決定的最強烈的批評者之一。
埃及軍方說，他們是在對人民的意願做出反應。之前世俗的埃及人舉行大規模抗議活動， 指責穆爾西反民主。
聯合國祕書長潘基文的發言人說，潘基文以最強硬的方式譴責埃及的暴力。他對埃及當局選擇用武力對付伊斯蘭主義示威活動感到遺憾。 不過這位發言人還說， 聯合國祕書長也知道大多數埃及人厭倦了示威和反示威給民衆正常生活造成的影響。 他們希望自己的國家在埃及人主導的進程中和平地向前邁進。
