Foreign Minister Nabil Fahmy travelled to the Guinean capital to participate in the Organisation of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) Council of Foreign Ministers, which starts on Monday and will last for three days. Fahmy is expected to address the council during the summit in Conakry and will "present the Egyptian vision about different subjects that fall within the framework of the priorities of the Islamic world," according to a ministry spokesman. The minister is also expected to meet with a number of his counterparts from the 57 member states of the OIC. The council is expected to discuss a range of issues including the Syrian conflict, the Palestinian issue, refugee issues, "Islamophobia" and the situation of Muslim minorities around the world. The council will also discuss the issues facing the Rohingya Muslims in Myanmar following the visit of an OIC ministerial delegation to assess the situation.
