The United States today appealed his decision Arab League to readmit Syria to its membership, after more than 11 years its exclusion due to the suppression of the popular uprising which developed into a civil war.
“We do not consider Syria worthy of rejoining the Arab League at this time”US State Department Deputy Spokesman Vedant Patel told reporters.
“We continue to believe that we will not normalize our relations with the Assad regime, and we do not support our allies and partners who do,” he added.
Washington has long opposed any normalization of relations with President Bashar al-Assad.
Arab foreign ministers on Sunday readmitted Syria to the Arab League, a decision that comes as the Syros president is in dire need of investment to begin the massive rebuilding operation of his country.
Damascus has recently emerged from its isolation, benefiting mainly from a global wave of solidarity in February following a powerful earthquake that devastated large swaths of Syria and Turkey.
In a first reaction yesterday, Sunday, the State Department criticized the readmission of Syria to the Arab League, stressing that Damascus does not deserve to return to the organization, while expressing doubts about the will of Syrian President Bashar al-Assad to resolve the crisis that has arisen from the civil war in Syria.
