Egyptians: The Army Will not Involve in Syria Crisis

CAIRO,(ST)_ A number of Egyptian  military experts and  politicians  stressed that the last speech of the Egyptian President Mohamed Morsi, came as failed attempt to engage the  Egyptian army into the crisis in Syria in implementation of US decisions, pointing out that the Egyptian army categorically refuses to interfere in the internal affairs of any Arab state.

In an interview with the Syrian TV  yesterday, Maj. Gen. Mustafa al-Badri, a military expert said that the  Egyptian armed forces do not agree on the decision,  Morsi announced and that Egypt can not accept hostility to any  Arab country, especially Syria, whose security is an extension of Egyptian strategic security.

 Badri added that it is  unlikely to have  enmity between Egypt and  sisterly Syria , noting that  Morsi’ s decision came to appease America and Qatar. 

For his part, Maj. Gen. Mamdouh Abdel Menem, a military expert, said  that  the doctrine of the Egyptian armed forces is strong and steady to that  not to interfere in the affairs of or against any Arab country or in the system or what was favored by the people or against the legitimacy chosen by the people in any Arab country.

He  added that any  Egyptian interference is only for the defense of any Arab country against external aggression, according to the Arab joint defense agreements.

 Hani Ammara , Chairman of the Journalists Union  noted the large national affiliation within the Egyptian armed forces , adding that it did not happen in the history of the Egyptian army that it challenged  any Arab brotherly army  and therefore it will not happen in  Morsi time , nor in the time of others.

He explained that the Egyptian army is  strong , conscious and mature and can not be drawn into such confrontation or interference.

 

Mahmoud Attia, head of (coalition Egypt over all)  said that  those who advised Morsi of  what he recently said put him  in a big trouble that will be in the most despicable wastebasket in Arab history.

 ” It is a shame on us as Arabs to see Russian President Vladimir Putin saying  that arming the terrorists in Syria is for slaughtering  the Syrian people, while we do nothing.” Attia added.
