To Syrians in Egypt and Neighboring Countries

Media Statement

Syrian Coalition

Istanbul, Turkey

July 28, 2013

The Syrian Coalition urges the Syrian people living in Egypt to fully comply with the laws of the country. It is necessary that Syrians do not interfere with internal affairs or local politics in Egypt, especially in light of the recent and tense political activities.

The Syrian Coalition commends the Syrian people for respecting and taking into consideration the special circumstances of each hosting country. The Coalition also stresses the importance of maintaining respect in order to avoid creating a hostile atmosphere to Syrians and to ensure that humanitarian doors remain open.

The Syrian Coalition extends its gratitude to the Egyptian people for their hospitality towards the Syrian people.

We urge the Egyptian authorities to continue to provide all possible facilities to the Syrian people in Egypt and annul recent regulations governing Syrians’ entrance into Egypt.

We ask for mercy for our martyrs, health for our wounded, and freedom for our detainees.

Long live Syria and its people, free and with honor.
