The Egyptian parliament has not stopped taking measures in support of Syria since Turkey launched Operation Peace Spring in northern Syria Oct. 9. Egypt’s parliamentary Arab Affairs Committee condemned in a statement Nov. 4 “the Turkish aggression on Syrian territory.”
The parliament did not only support Syria in its statements. At the invitation of the Arab Affairs Committee, it hosted Oct. 20 Syrian Ambassador to Egypt Bassam Darwish and his delegation, who were given a standing ovation at the plenary session.
