The Moroccan Ministry of Foreign Affairs on Sunday stressed that the ultimate solution to the Syrian crisis should be a political one achieved through a serious and comprehensive dialogue.

In a statement, the ministry urged all parties to prepare well "for the Geneva conference," an international peace conference on Syria that has been postponed multiple times.

Meanwhile, it condemned "the despicable massacre" in the Damascus suburb of Ghouta, an alleged chemical attack on Aug. 21 that activists say killed over 1,300 people.

The statement said Morocco will continue its consultations with the Arab League to form an appropriate position on the matter

Morocco has followed closely the developments in Syria after the Ghouta attack and holds the Syrian government responsible for its consequences.
