Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov on Thursday informed his Egyptian counterpart Sameh Shoukry about the ceasefire deal in Syria.
In a statement, the Russian foreign ministry said that Lavrov told Shoukry about the beginning of a political settlement of the crisis.
Earlier in the day, Lavrov expressed the hope that Egypt would join the negotiations on the Syrian settlement in Astana, while Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Jordan and Iraq could join them at subsequent stages.
Russia’s top diplomat noted that the issue was discussed during a telephone conversation between Russian President Vladimir Putin and his Egyptian counterpart Abdel Fattah El Sisi earlier on Thursday.
