Arab League seat for Syria opposition just symbolic?
Worldwide, Daily news | ankakh | March 30, 2013 16:09
The Arab League’s decision to grant Syria’s seat to the opposition could prove to be nothing more than a symbolic act as long as there is no real backing for a rebel government on the ground, opponents and analysts say.
Last week, the main opposition National Coalition selected Ghassan Hitto as the country’s first rebel prime minister, tasking him with forming a government to administer insurgent-held areas.
But the move was not backed by Washington and rebel supporter Riyadh, which prefer a government born from dialogue between regime and opposition figures.
But opponents say that without full-scale international backing for an opposition government, which has yet to be formed, the Arab League seat will bring, at most, a boost to morale.
