Egypt’s foreign ministry has called on the US to show restraint in its reaction to protests in Missouri, according to a report in local news provider, Ahram Online.<\/p>\n

The country’s foreign ministry told the state-run MENA news agency that US authorities should deal with the protests in the city of Ferguson in accordance with US and international stardards, the report on Tuesday said.<\/p>\n

Egyptian foreign ministry spokesman, Badr Abdel-Aty, hoped investigations would reveal the truth about “Mike Brown’s murder”, it added, referring to the black US teenager whose killing by a white police officer triggered protests.<\/p>\n

Egypt has faced criticism over its own record of dealing with protesters.<\/p>\n

A report released by Human Rights Watch (HRW) last week accused Egyptian security forces of systematically and deliberatly killing protesters at a sit-in at Cairo’s Rabaa al-Adawiya square in August 2013.<\/p>\n

Up to a thousand supporters of the former president, Mohamed Morsi, were killed in the clashes according to HRW.<\/p>\n

The country subsequently introduced laws preventing demonstrations that did not have clearance from authorities.<\/p>\n
