With any political solution to the Syrian crisis, it is necessary to preserve the unity of the country, including the Golan Heights. Such a statement during a visit to Egypt was made by UN Secretary General Antonio Guterres.

 

 

«Any political decision on Syria that we will reach must preserve the unity of the Syrian territories, including the Golan», he said, in particular, speaking at a joint press conference with the Egyptian Foreign Minister.

 

 

During his visit to Cairo, the head of the international organization held meetings with the head of the Egyptian Foreign Ministry Sameh Shoukri, with whom he discussed the fight against terrorism, and the sheikh of Al-Azhar University, Ahmad Al-Tayyeb.
