Moussa backs nomination for Arab League top post

April 20, 2011

Arab League (AL) Secretary General Amr Moussa on Tuesday supported the nomination of Moustafa Fikki for the post of the pan-Arab body's chief, Egypt's official news agency MENA reported.

Moussa, a possible presidential hopeful, made his comments during a ceremony marking the 35th anniversary of Egypt's Tagamu party, according to MENA.

Egypt on April 11 nominated diplomat Fikki as the next secretary general of AL to succeed Moussa, whose second term will end in May.

Egyptian Foreign Minister Nabil el-Arabi said earlier that Fikki is an appropriate person selected to succeed Moussa in this key turning point of the AL.

Fikki possesses the Arab nation's ideology and has been the assistant of foreign minister for Arab issues, he said.
