International reactions to the Egyptian revolution of 2011 refer to external responses to the events that took place in Egypt between 25 January and 10 February 2011,as well as some of the events after the collapse of the government of Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak,such as Mubarak's trial. The reactions have generally been either measured or supportive of the Egyptian people,with most governments and organisations calling for non-violent responses on both sides and peaceful moves towards reform. Whilst the protesters called for Mubarak to step down immediately,most foreign governments stopped short of this demand,at least during the early phases of the protests,due to realpolitik concerns about the consequences of a power vacuum on the stability of Egypt specifically and to the wider Middle East as a whole. Some Middle Eastern leaders expressed support for Mubarak. Meanwhile many governments issued travel advisories and evacuated their citizens from the country.
