Saudi FM demands enhanced military support for Syrian opposition
2013-09-27
[ENGLISH.ALARABIYA.NET] Saudi Foreign Minister Prince Saud al-Faisal called on Thursday for enhanced military support to the Syrian opposition to change the balance of power on the ground.

Prince al-Faisal said hesitation to support the Syrian armed opposition would serve the extremists in Syria and would make it more difficult to achieve a speedy solution to the crisis.

He warned of the Syrian regime's tactic to buy time, calling for the planned Geneva II conference to be specified in a U.N. Security Council Chapter VI resolution.

The Saudi foreign minister also demanded increased humanitarian assistance to the Syrian refugees.

You've got all the money (a lot of it ours) - so you pay for that support.

Put up or shut up.
