Saudi foreign minister stresses Syria, Lebanon role in ME peace making

Originally published

Saudi Arabia's Foreign Minister, Prince Saud al-Faisal has stressed that peace would not be achieved in the Middle East unless it was a just and comprehensive one and unless it included a solution for the Syrian - Lebanese track.

In a press conference held in Jeddah on Saturday, al-Faisal called the international community represented by the Quartet committee and the US for an active and "immediate move to confront the Israeli policies which aim at violating the Palestinian territories."

In this context, al-Faisal said that during the Syrian - Egyptian - Saudi meeting held recently, an agreement has been made on a formula to promote the Arab League Charter and to activate joint Arab act.

He made clear that this new formula will be submitted to the representatives of the Arab states in AL, thus, they will convey it to the Arab leaders to be discussed in the preliminary meeting for the coming Arab Summit.
