DUBAI: Egyptian President Mohamed Mursi criticized the government of Syrian President Bashar Assad in a speech Thursday at a summit of developing countries being held in Iran, a steadfast ally of Assad.

He added Syria has an "unjust regime" and that it was an "ethical duty" to support the Syrian people against this regime.
