Leaders of the West African bloc Ecowas have called on Guinea's military junta to provide a timetable for elections that would lead to a return to civilian rule.
The bloc's leaders issued a statement on Monday saying it remained "very concerned that three months after the coup d'etat, a timetable for the return of constitutional order is yet to be issued".
