CAIRO, April 24 (KUNA) -- Arab League Secretary General Amr Moussa
discussed with Turkish Ambassador to Egypt Hussein Bo Tasali bilateral
cooperation.
Cheif of Staff at the Secretary General's Office Ambassador Hesham Youssef
told the press on Saturday that Moussa and Tasali discussed issues of mutual
interest.
Moussa will visit Turkey within efforts to activate the Arab-Turkish Forum
that will take place in Turkey June.
On Moussa's Association of Arab neighbors proposal, Youssef said that
Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan had expressed support for this
proposal during the Arab Summit in Sirt, Libya, last month.
On the other hand, Moussa received South African Deputy Foreign Minister
Ibrahim Ibrahim and discussed several regional and international issues of
mutual interest, especially middle east peace process.
Ibrahim said after the meeting, Israel is acting similarly to internal
resistance to the apartheid system in South Africa, where he adviced
Palestinians to unite and to work together to pass forward the peace
initiative in the middle east.
Ambassador Youssef said that Moussa and Ibrahim discussed another Afro-Arab
summit in Libya next October. (end)
