Egyptian Vice President Omar Suleiman urged on Wednesday all demonstrators to go home and observe a curfew to restore calm, saying his dialogue with political forces depended on an end to street protests.

State media said Suleiman, the veteran intelligence chief appointed to the office of vice president last week, urged demonstrators to respect an earlier call from the Egyptian army and return to their homes.

“Dialogue with the political opposition forces… requires that the demonstrations end and the Egyptian street returns to normal,” he said.
