Madrid. .- The crown prince of Bahrain, Sheikh Salman Bin Hamad Al Khalifa, said Friday that "it's time to talk, not fight" and has called for calm following recent violent incidents in the capital, Manama, where there are protests. Thousands of people, mostly Shiites, are manifested in Bahrain from February 14, called Day of Rage.
The crown prince has made it clear that "dialogue is always open and reforms are continuing," while he warned that "all honest people should say 'enough'." "This land belongs to all citizens of Bahrain," he added, in a speech picked up by Reuters. "We call on all parties, the armed forces, security forces and citizens," stated the prince, deputy commander of the Armed Forces.
In his view, "it is time for calm." Bahraini troops on Friday fired on demonstrators gathered in the square of the capital La Perla, in an offensive that has killed at least 23 injured. At least four people were killed Thursday during an eviction from a protest camp set up in that area.
Dozens of police cars were guarding the square tonight, whose access is completely blocked, as has written a CNN reporter in your Twitter account.
