Cairo calls for finding a political solution to crisis in Syria

Kuwait, SANA-Egyptian Foreign Minister Samih Shukri affirmed Monday that his country calls for finding a political solution to the crisis in Syria according to the will of the Syrians.

“Egypt supports a political solution to the events in Syria in light of the will of the Syrians and internal reconciliation to avoid the suffering of the people and the foreign intervention,” Shukri told MENA news agency from Kuwait.

He added Egypt cooperates with all sides concerned, whether inside Syria or abroad, to find a way that encourages the political solution to specify a framework through which the political solution will be productive.

“The international community has a big desire to contain the crisis, so we supported the initiative of the UN Envoy to Syria de Mistura to freeze fighting.” Shukri added.
