U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry said Monday he wants those who attempted to seize power in Turkey to be brought to justice. But, Kerry warned the government against going "too far" while seeking to return order to the country. “We will certainly support bringing the perpetrators of the coup to justice, but we also caution against a reach that goes well beyond that. And stress the importance of the democratic rule being upheld.” Kerry spoke at a news conference after a meeting with EU foreign ministers in Brussels, Belgium. He said, "We stand squarely on the side of the elected leadership in Turkey. He added, "But we also firmly urge the government of Turkey to maintain calm and stability throughout the country." State-operated news agency Anadolu reports that 8,777 officers have been suspended. The news agency said about 6,000 members of the judiciary and military have been detained. However, world leaders are voicing concern and are warning against actions that would harm constitutional order.
