Egypt refused to dispatch troops to Iraq and Syria to take part in military
operations against the Islamic State (IS) organization, as international war
led by the United States against the organization.

Dispatching troops abroad requires legal and constitutional measures,
informed sources told Al-Masry Al-Youm, adding that Egypt is fighting
terrorism locally and securing all strategic borders at the same time.

US Secretary of State John Kerry, who was in Turkey on Friday to acknowledge
its stance toward the alliance against IS, said that Arab countries will
play crucial role and that the alliance countries did not mention sending
ground troops.

Kerry is currently in Cairo to propose with his Egyptian counterpart Sameh
Shokry and Arab League Chief Nabil al-Araby an expansion of the alliance.
