Cairo - Egypt Today
Secretary General of the United Nations António Guterres said on Wednesday that conflicts in the Middle East continued to feed extremism around the world.
In a statement issued by United Nations Information Center in Cairo, Guterres added that sustainable peace required not only political will from all sides, but also collective efforts of the international community, the civil society and mainly, the religious leaders.
He asserted that there was a need to expand the space for dialogue to encompass local and regional leaders and other actors who have a voice and influence within their respective communities.
The Chief also said in a seminar at the UN headquarters that the Holy Land had a special place in the hearts of billions of people around the world.
He stressed that the two-state solution was the only path to ensure that the Palestinians and Israelis realized their national and historical aspirations and live in peace, security and dignity.
