CAIRO - Egypt's army chief Abdel Fattah al-Sisi called for nationwide rallies on Friday to give the military a mandate to confront what he termed violence and terrorism following the ousting of Islamist President Mohamed Morsi.

In a speech on Wednesday at a military graduation ceremony, Sisi denied accusations that he had betrayed Morsi and vowed to stick to a political road-map that laid the way for a reform of the constitution and new elections within some six months.

He said his appeal for protests on Friday was not a call for violence and expressed support for efforts for national reconciliation.
