“We are providing the Syrian refugees with food and clothes, but we will not give them more than that,” Kheireddine told Al-Manar TV, in a reference to weapons.
He also voiced hope that Syrian President Bashar al-Assad “carries out all the reforms, and that the Arab countries stand by him.”
Kheireddine also said that “Foreign Minister Adnan Mansour expresses the Lebanese government’s position before the Arab League and all international forums.”
The Arab League on Saturday suspended Syria’s membership in the organization until President Bashar al-Assad implements an Arab deal to end violence against protesters, and called for sanctions and transition talks with the opposition.
Lebanese Foreign Minister Adnan Mansour said during the Arab League Saturday meeting that he objected to the decision to suspend Syria because the move “has dangerous repercussions on Syria and the region.”
Syrian anti-regime protests erupted in mid-March. According to UN estimates, more than 3,500 people have been killed in the crackdown on demonstrations.
