CAIRO (Reuters) - British Prime Minister David Cameron said Monday Egypt must do more to show it has a democratic future following the fall of former President Hosni Mubarak.

"I think they have to do more to show people that those people can have confidence that Egypt is going to have an open and democratic future," he told Sky News.

"That will be good for people in Egypt but good for everyone in this region as well."

Cameron earlier became the first foreign leader to visit post-Mubarak Egypt.
