[01] FM: Only political solution will resolve Syrian crisis
The solution to the crisis in Syria can only be a political and not a
military one, Foreign Minister Erato Kozakou Marcoullis has stressed
in her intervention at the First International Conference of the Group
of Friends of the Syrian People, which took place on Friday in Tunis,
Tunisia.

referred to the special symbolism of the event, which is taking place
in the country where the Arab Spring began.
The solution to the crisis in Syria, she noted, can only be a political
and not a military one, warning that any military intervention would
bring incalculable consequences not only to the country itself but to

The Arab League is doing important work in addressing the Syrian crisis
and it should maintain its leading role in resolving the situation,
she added.
