ARAB GAZETTE - CAIRO (IINA)
The Egyptian capital Cairo will host on Tuesday the first round of dialogue among representatives of different parties to the conflict in Myanmar's Rakhine State, in order to achieve peace in this Southeast Asian country.
This first round of dialogue, entitled: "Towards a Civilized and Humanitarian Dialogue to Achieve Peace in Myanmar (Burma)", will kick off under the auspices of Grand Imam of Al-Azhar Dr. Ahmed el-Tayeb," said a statement by Al-Azhar on Sunday.
The dialogue is part of a role played by the Muslim Council of Elders to promote peace and coexistence in the world, the statement noted.
Participants in the dialogue include young people from Burmese society of all faiths (Buddhism, Islam, Christianity and Hinduism), in the presence of a number of diplomats, writers, thinkers and journalists. They discuss ways to achieve coexistence and reach a radical solution to the conflict in Myanmar based on the concept of citizenship, it added.
