Arab League says will handle Syria issue in light of UN failure
Arab League chief Nabil Elaraby said the responsibility for resolving the crisis in Syria is now in the League's hands, this after a UN proposal calling for President Bashar Assad to step down was vetoed.
"The time has come for a decisive action to stop the bloodshed suffered by the Syrian people since the start of last year," he said. (Roi Kais, AP)
