Doha: Qatar’s Prime Minister and Foreign Minister H E Sheikh Hamad bin Jassem bin Jabor Al Thani, who is also the Chairman of Arab Ministerial Committee on Syria, has said the European Union’s decision on Monday to amend the arms embargo to allow “non-lethal” aid and “technical assistance” to flow to the Syrians is “inapposite”.
Responding to a question about the impact of the European Union decision and the international indecision on prolonging the crisis in Syria, the Prime Minister told Aljazeera that the Syrian people are paying the price for prolonging the crisis, pointing to the fact that the number of people killed as a result of this crisis continues to rise, and that the Syrian government has not changed
its stance.
