El-Baz: Iraqis need effective action to end their suffering
Egypt-Iraq, Politics, 12/29/1998

In a public meeting yesterday on Islamic thought organized by the Ministry of Endowments and Al Azhar at El-Hussein mosque Osama El-Baz, the Egyptian president's political advisor, said the Egyptian position toward the Iraqi crisis expressed the government's great awareness and concern with the reality of the situation.

El-Baz expressed the need for an effective role to put an end to the suffering of the Iraqi people and not simply the delivery of speeches that express condemnations and denunciations.

El-Baz said the Iraqi people will not be satisfied with voicing their position, but would most importantly want to prevent the deterioration of their situation.

On a different subject, El-Baz highlighted the decisive opposition of Egypt to the decision of the Israeli government to stop the implementation of the Wye River accord and impose new conditions on the Palestinian side.
