**克里前往中东讨论埃及与叙利亚问题**
美国国务卿克里再次出访中东，目前埃及局势日趋紧张，同时叙利亚局势更加恶化。
克里星期一启程前往约旦首都安曼，会晤阿拉伯联盟官员，讨论埃及军方本月早些时候罢免穆尔西总统以来的事态发展。
此外，预计克里还将讨论叙利亚危机问题。
目前还不清楚克里在访问期间是否讨论重启以巴和平谈判的问题。不过美国官员说，克里可能在安曼会晤巴勒斯坦权力机构主席阿巴斯。
克里自今年早些时候就任国务卿以来，这是他第6次出访中东。
**Kerry En Route to Middle East for Talks on Egypt, Syria**
U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry is heading back to the Middle East amid rising tensions in Egypt and deteriorating conditions in Syria.
Kerry departed Monday for the Jordanian capital, Amman, where he is due to meet with Arab League officials to discuss developments in Egypt since the army's ouster of President Mohamed Morsi earlier this month.
He also is expected to discuss the crisis in Syria.
It is not clear if Kerry will hold talks during his trip on reviving Israeli-Palestinian peace negotiations. But U.S. officials say he may meet with Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas in Amman.
This is Kerry's sixth trip to the Middle East since becoming secretary of state earlier this year.

**Burma Promises To Free All Political Prisoners By Year's End**
Burmese President Thein Sein is promising to release all political prisoners in his country by the end of this year.
Mr. Thein Sein made the pledge Monday during a speech in London as he visited Britain for the first time.
He was given a warm welcome by British Prime Minister David Cameron. The two leaders discussed increasing trade links and military cooperation. Mr. Cameron also urged the Burmese president to defend human rights.
President Thein Sein said thousands of prisoners already have been released from Burma's jails. He said a committee is working through the cases of those still in prison.
The Burmese leader also said he is close to brokering a nationwide cease-fire to end long-running conflicts between the government and various ethnic groups.
Mr. Thein Sein's visit was met by some protestors in London who demonstrated against Burma's human rights record.
