AL Chief welcomes ceasefire in Syria

Arab League Secretary General Ahmed Abul Gheit on Thursday welcomed an agreement made to announce a nationwide ceasefire in Syria. 

In a statement, the Arab League chief said the situation in Syria is an important issue on the table of Arab states. 

He hoped that the agreement would reflect a strong will to reach a political solution for the current crisis. 

Having a stable ceasefire agreement is conditioned by the countries that endorsed the deal, he said. 

Abul Gheit warned that some parties would work now on a demographic change in Syria by forced migration scenarios. 

Also, he called for an international monitoring to guarantee commitment to the ceasefire deal.
