Arab League chief criticizes US Middle East policy
Regional-USA, Politics, 11/8/2003

Arab League Secretary General Amre Moussa has stressed that any aggression or threat against Syria is an aggression on all the Arab states adding that Arab solidarity and coordination are the way to protect Arabs and keep their security and stability.

In a press conference held in Cairo at the AL headquarter on Thursday, Moussa said that the Arab solidarity is the most appropriate avenue to back Syria or any other Arab state.

He strongly criticized US dealing with the region's issues asserting that there is a mistake in the US understanding of the situation in the region. This understanding which ignores the reason behind Arab's rejection of the US policy which is "its full bias to the Israeli practices which contradict international law."

Concerning the EU's latest poll which showed that 59% of Europeans see Israel as being the greatest danger and threat to world peace, Moussa said that the poll's outcome reflected the Europeans' understanding of the "dangerous aggressive practices of Israel against unarmed Palestinians."
