Beirut, (ST)- The Foreign and Expatriates Minister in the Lebanese Caretaker government Adnan Mansour has stressed that the way the Arab League (AL) has been dealing with the situation in Syria since the beginning of the crisis, has turned the AL to be part in this crisis and unable to attain any positive result in terms of finding a settlement.
In a statement to the Lebanese NBN channel, Mansour said the AL Charter and decisions must be adopted unanimously. “Syria is a sovereign state and any direct intervention in its affairs is a violation of international law,” the Lebanese foreign minister added, stressing that the way Syria’s AL membership was suspended was illegal and against the AL Charter.
Mansour reiterated that national dialogue has been proved to be the only solution to the crisis in Syria, pointing out that the Syrian government has expressed complete readiness to launch dialogue.
