DAMASCUS, (SANA)- An official source in the Foreign and Expatriates Ministry on Tuesday said Syria decided not to participate in the ministerial meeting of the Arab League (AL) Council and the Arab-Turkish cooperation meeting, due on Wednesday in the Moroccan capital, Rabat.
The source explained that after the issuance of the Arab League decision to suspend Syria's membership in the League on November 12, some brotherly Arab countries worked on suggesting solutions to restore the credibility and legitimacy to the AL work method and role, as they stressed the extreme importance of Syria's attending of the mentioned meetings.
"Therefore, Syria had decided to participate in those two meetings in response to the desire of these Arab countries and out of its belief in the consolidation of the joint Arab action away from reactions and despite its knowledge of the pressures targeted against it that had been exerted on the countries which worked to issue this disgraceful decision [on suspending Syria's membership," the source added.
"In light of the statements issued by officials in Morocco which we were officially informed of, Syria decided not to participate in those two meetings," the source said.
It concluded that "Syria, whose permanent concern was the protection and preservation of the present and the future of the Arab Nation and keeping away the threats against its decisive causes, will continue playing its pan-Arab role in spite of all the attempts aimed at undermining the joint Arab action and its institutions."
'Turkey must put an end to Syria threats'

ANKARA – Hürriyet Daily News
Turkey's main opposition has called on the government to stop "threatening" Syria over a deadly crackdown on anti-regime protestors, arguing that President Bashar al-Assad should be unseated through democratic means and not foreign meddling.
Speaking to reporters yesterday, Republican People's Party (CHP) deputy chairman Faruk Loğoğlu condemned weekend attacks on Turkey's diplomatic missions in Syria and warned that such action against premises considered as Turkish territory could lead to "very heavy consequences" for Syria. He denounced Assad for going down the "wrong path" and wasting "numerous opportunities" to introduce reform and end the bloodshed.
Loğoğlu, however, warned that Ankara's policy of "taking sides" in the turmoil was exacerbating the tensions and might eventually plunge Turkey into a conflict with its southern neighbor.
"Turkey must stop being a country that is constantly threatening Syria. Turkey must stop taking sides in Syria's internal unrest. If we continue with such statements, one day we could be forced to carry out these threats and may come easily to the point of conflict with Syria," he said.
"If you follow Europe and the United States in making Assad's removal a policy by itself, then you are dooming Syria to internal conflict. You are telling the people of Syria to solve the issue through violence and bloodshed," he said. "If the internal conflict grows in Syria, Turkey's interests, its national security, and the entire region will face very serious problems."
Opposition lawmakers also questioned the government's policy on Syria at Parliament's Planning and Budget Commission, which convened yesterday to debate the Foreign Ministry's 2012 budget.
CHP deputy Osman Korutürk likened Turkey's close ties with the Syrian opposition to the support that Damascus had given in the past to the outlawed Kurdistan Workers' Party (PKK). He also questioned whether agreements inked with Syria during the two countries' recently flourishing bilateral ties were still valid.
Mehmet Günal of the Nationalist Movement Party (MHP) urged the government to explain how it "has come to a position of interfering in Syria's domestic affairs [so] soon after joint Cabinet meetings were held."
The MHP's Tuğrul Türkeş, meanwhile, said Ankara was neglecting the plight of the Turkmens in Iraq, claiming that a spate of abductions of Turkmen doctors, teachers and businessmen had cost the community a total of $4 million paid in ransom since August.
"I'm afraid the situation will get even more dramatic in January" after the withdrawal of U.S. forces from Iraq, he said.

Turkey may consider terminating the sale of electricity to neighboring Syria if tensions continue to escalate over a Syrian crackdown on anti-regime protests, Turkish Energy Minister Taner Yıldız said on Tuesday.
Yıldız also announced that Turkey had shelved plans for Turkey's petroleum company, TPAO, to jointly explore oil with Syria's state oil company in six wells within Syria.
"We are currently supplying electricity to Syria. If this trend continues, however, we may have to revise all these decisions," Yıldız said.
Yıldız's statement came hours after Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdoğan slammed the Syrian government following attacks on Turkish diplomatic missions in Syria over the weekend following an Arab League decision to suspend Syria's membership over its crackdown on the eight-month uprising. Turkish President Abdullah Gül also warned Syria that Turkey will have a "different reaction" if attacks similar to Saturday's are repeated.

RIYADH, (SANA) – The Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) said on Tuesday that holding an urgent Arab summit at this time is futile, a stance reflecting the lack of proper consideration of the dangers facing Arab joint action.
In a statement, Secretary General of the Council Abdul Latif al-Zayyani said that the GCC affirms support and commitment to the Arab League's resolution regarding the Syrian crisis.
Syria called on Sunday for holding an urgent Arab summit to deal with the Syrian crisis and consider its negative repercussions on the Arab situation.
