Egypt's Foreign Minister Sameh Shoukry held talks Thursday with his French, Chinese and Brazilian counterparts on the sidelines of the conference of "Supporting Syria and the Region," which is currently in session in London.

Shoukry also met with the chief of the UN High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) along with the Austrian chancellor.

The meetings dealt with the political, security and humanitarian conditions in Syria along with Egypt's ongoing efforts to settle the Syrian crisis and ways of coordinating international efforts to deal with the serious humanitarian consequences of the Syrian crisis, said Foreign Ministry Spokesman Ahmed Abu Zeid in a press release.

Abu Zeid, meanwhile, said that Shoukry's meeting with his French counterpart tackled the latest developments in the Palestinian arena and the proposed ideas to relaunch Palestinian-Israeli peace talks.
