Arab efforts to contain the Syrian- Lebanese crisis
Syria-Regional, Politics, 12/22/2005

In Cairo, the secretary General of the Arab League Amr Moussa said that the AL is moving in an attempt to contain the crisis in the Syrian- Lebanese relations.

But Moussa refused to answer a question on whether he intends to shortly visit each of Syria and Lebanon.

On Wednesday Moussa met with the Syrian President Bashar al-Assad during a work lunch the Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak held in his honor in Cairo.

Al-Assad made talks with Mubarak during a quick visit he had held to Cairo that dealt with means of improving the relations between Syria and Lebanon, and Damascus's cooperation with the UN investigation committee on the assassination of the former Lebanese prime minister Rafiq al-Hariri.
