UN envoy: Arming rebels 'not the answer'
The UK's Guardian reported Friday that United Nations peace envoy to Syria, Lakhdar Brahimi, has said that arming the rebels was “not the way” to end the conflict. "Pouring more arms to the opposition would bring more arms to the government and that will not solve the problem," Brahimi told Channel 4 News.
Brahimi added that he could see no swift end to the civil war and urged the international community to increase diplomatic pressure on the regime. (Ynet)
