‘US, Saudis started arming Syrian gangs eight months ago’

Saudi Arabia has said that arming the Syrian rebels is “an excellent idea,” following remarks by US President Barack Obama vowing to use every tool available against Damascus.

Saudi Foreign Minister Saud al-Faisal made the comments during a meeting with US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton on the sidelines of an international conference on Syria in Tunisia.

Faisal’s remarks could yet be seen as another signal of Riyadh’s intervention in a foreign country after it sent hundreds of troops to neighboring Bahrain to crush peaceful protests there.

Earlier the United States urged further pressure on the government of Bashar al-Assad by arming the opposition groups.

Press TV has conducted an interview with Hisham Jaber, Director of Center for Middle East Studies, to share his opinion on this issue.
