General Abdel-Fattah el-Sisi - Announcement of Military Overthrow of Egyptian Government lyrics

The armed forces would never turn a blind eye towards the aspirations of the Egyptian people. The armed forces will always be out of politics. The Egyptian people called on the armed forces to fulfill the goals of the revolution. The armed forces understood the demands of the Egyptian people. We are committed to fulfilling our responsibility. Since November 2012, we have called for a national dialogue, which was accepted by all parties except the presidency. We have made many proposals to get out of the current crisis. We met with the Egyptian president on 30 June, 2013, during which we rejected any threat to the Egyptian people. We were hoping for reconciliation that would fulfill the aspirations of the people. However, the president's address did not live up to the expectations of the Egyptian people. So we called for a meeting involving different parties, without excluding anyone. Our roadmap consists of: 1. Suspending the constitution. 2. Holding early presidential elections. The High Constitutional Court head will be in charge of the country until then. 3. Forming a national coalition government. 4. Forming a committee to look into amendments of the constitution. Taking measures to include the Egyptian youth in the decision-making process. The armed forces call on the great Egyptian people to abstain from violence and resort to peaceful protest. We salute the armed forces for their repeated sacrifices for the sake of the county.
