DAMASCUS,(ST)_ ” The decision by the Arab League to give Syria’s seat to Istanbul Council in its amended copy of the so-called “coalition” is a Qatari industry ,” said ambassador Youssef Ahmad, describing this decision as null and void and of no legal effect because it is not based on the Arab League Charter nor its statutes and regulations.
In an interview with Syrian TV on Thursday night , Syria’s former ambassador to the AL explained that the AL exercises systematic counterfeiting of its charter and agreements in order to make decisions serve U.S. , Israeli , Qatari and Saudi interests.
” The AL’s decision ended any role to resolving the crisis in Syria by peaceful means and at the same time makes of it a party to the crisis, not part of the solution,” he said., pointing out that its call for this “coalition” to occupy Syria ‘s seat to the AL contrasts with the first article of its charter, stressing that the third paragraph of this illegal decision is a flagrant violation of Arab national security.
” If the AL accepts this opposition party and placesit on the Syrian seat , this means it has to agree on placing other oppositions to occupy the seats of other countries like the ones in Bahrain and Saudi Arabia.
He indicated that since the beginning of this “earthquake” that ravaged some countries in the Arab world, the AL has taken positions that serve policies of the sheikhdoms of money, oil and gas which kidnapped the Arab decision and pursued a different policy complies with their work agenda against Syria.
“Qatar plays a conspiratorial role on behalf of all the enemies of Syria and the Arab world, in Tunisia, Egypt, Syria, and Mali.” he continued

“The issue of Palestine and its agendas were absent from the Arab League since the suspension of Syria ‘s membership, pointing out that the contradictory position of the AL Secretary General Nabil al-Arabi on Thursday reflected this fact very clear when he said that the Arabs were unable to express the simplest of what Israel is doing in the Palestinian territories while he said the opposite when dealing with the Syrian crisis, the ambassador stressed.”
