PG Arab FMs to discuss Syria with Russia

Sheikh Sabah Khaled al-Sabah said in a Thursday parliamentary session in Kuwait City that a meeting will be held between the Russian foreign minister and foreign ministers of the (Persian) Gulf Cooperation Council “on March 7 in Riyadh” to discuss Syrian events.

The Kuwaiti foreign minister claimed the Arab ministers would use the opportunity to “express their disappointment with the Russian stance” on Syria.

Russia and China vetoed a Western-backed draft resolution on Syria at the UN Security Council (UNSC) on February 4. The two permanent members of the UNSC rejected the draft as “unbalanced.”

Moscow and Beijing also vetoed a European-drafted UN Security Council resolution against Syria on October 5, 2011.
