Egyptian President Mohamed Morsi said Egypt has decided to cut all ties with Syria starting Saturday and withdraw the envoy from Damascus, Reuters reported. Syria's embassy in Cairo is also to be closed.

"We have decided to close down the Syrian embassy in Cairo," said Morsi during a conference of Sunni Muslim clerics in support of the Syrian uprising at Cairo Indoor Stadium, according to local newspaper Ahram online. "The Egyptian envoy in Damascus will also be withdrawn."

The President added that Hezbollah, the Shiite Islamic militant group based in Lebanon, must leave Syria, adding "these are serious words".

"We stand against Hezbollah in its aggression against the Syrian people," he said. "There is no space or place for Hezbollah in Syria.”

Morsi needs to be careful, he runs the risk of making so many enemies in short order, just the other day he threatened Ethiopia over the Nile waters. Again here he is picking a quarrel with Syrian regime and Hezbollah as well.
