The general secretary of the Arab League Hossam Zaki confirmed that the Arab economic summit will be held on 19 and 20 January in Beirut, despite requests for postponement.

"There is not yet an Arab consensus on the return of Syria to participate in the Arab League meetings," Zaki told AFP by telephone.

The participation of Syrian government delegations at any meeting of the Arab League was suspended in November 2011.

"There are no plans to discuss Syria's participation in the annual Arab summit (to be held next March in Tunisia) during the Beirut summit," said Zaki, who is currently in Beirut to follow preparations for the summit.
