Post: Egypt Welcomes US Move to Remove Syria From List of State Sponsors of Terrorism

Egypt: Egypt on Tuesday welcomed the US move to remove Syria from the list of state sponsors of terrorism, considering it a step that would help support efforts toward stability, economic recovery, and reconstruction.
