Egyptian President Mohamed Mursi said bloodshed in Syria would only end if there was "effective interference" from outside the country.
Mr Mursi told a summit of the Non-Aligned Movement (NAM) in Tehran that Syria needed a peaceful transition to democracy and an end to the "oppressive regime". He added: "The bloodshed in Syria is our responsibility on all our shoulders and we have to know the bloodshed cannot stop without effective interference from all of us."
