Egypt and US Collaborate on Syria's Path to Stability
In a significant move towards peace, Egyptian Foreign Minister Badr Abdelattty had a pivotal conversation with U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken on Tuesday night about the evolving situation in Syria. 🤝🌍
The two leaders emphasized the need for a comprehensive political process that includes all Syrian national components and parties. This inclusive approach aims to pave the way for restoring stability and peace in the war-torn nation. 🕊️
Abdelattty reaffirmed Egypt's unwavering support for Syria's sovereignty, unity, and territorial integrity. He also voiced strong opposition to Israel's control over the demilitarized buffer zone in the Golan Heights, labeling it an occupation and a blatant violation of international law. 🚫🇮🇱
Calling on the international community, Egypt urged the global powers to take responsibility in halting assaults on Syria, highlighting the urgency of the situation. ⏳
On the other side, Secretary Blinken spoke about a \"historic opportunity\" for the Syrian people to build a better future. He stressed the importance of respecting human rights, protecting religious and ethnic minorities, and upholding international humanitarian law. 📜❤️
Amidst these discussions, Syrian President Bashar al-Assad has resigned and sought asylum in Russia as his government collapses following intense offensives by Syrian militant groups. The region watches closely as these diplomatic efforts unfold, hoping for a peaceful resolution. 📰🇷🇺
