Egypt's Foreign Ministry summoned on Tuesday the Turkish charge
d'affaires to protest statements of Turkish officials over the
presidential elections, official news agency MENA reported.
"The Turkish statements showed deliberate negligence about the proceedings of the presidential elections which featured by transparency and integrity amid supervision of the international society," MENA quoted Badr Abdel Aaty, the spokesman of the foreign ministry, as saying.
Egypt didn't criticize the Turkish domestic elections conducted last March, despite some accusation of frauds especially in Ankara, based on the Egyptian persuasion of non-interference in other countries' affairs, Aaty said, adding we expect the Turkish side to respect the Egyptian people's choice.
The relations between Turkey and Egypt have been strained after Ankara condemned Egypt's use of force against supporters of ousted president Mohamed Morsi.
