Nobody wants to go to war. We are here to work out the modalities for dialogue with the coup leaders in order to avert war.

We must not allow external influences or inflammatory statements to divide us. Unity, wisdom, and diplomacy must take precedence over division and pride at this critical time.

Democracy is always in motion. Every day, new laws are made to reflect the needs of the people. If the argument is that it is a 'military' constitution because it was promulgated with military decrees, we are now in a democracy, and whatever changes need to be made should be made democratically and in line with laid-down procedures. There’s no perfect constitution in the world.
