Half of Arab League Leaders Plan to Skip Damascus Summit
[Ha'aretz] Yoav Stern - The leaders of at least 12 Arab countries will not attend the Arab League summit in Damascus on March 29-30, Arab sources said Monday. The Arab world has not been this fragmented for a very long time. "The real decision-makers are not coming since there is no progress on the Lebanon issue," said one source. Arab countries, led by Saudi Arabia and Egypt, are demanding that Syria allow the election of a new president in Lebanon.
