Arab Foreign Ministers assemble in Baghdad to discuss the developments in the region over the next two days in the run up to the Arab Summit on Thursday. Syria would be on top of agenda along with developments in Iran, Yemen, Sudan and the repercussions of Arab spring in the region. The Arab heads of States join formally for the Arab Summit on Thursday; the first such meeting in Iraq after a gap of two decades.
AIR West Asia Correspondent has reports that after years of war, isolation and American occupation, Iraq prepares to hold the summit of Arab leaders in Baghdad. Iraqi Foreign Minister Hoshyar Zebari said the summit is the most important event in the region in the wake of tensions in the region around Syria, Iran and Gulf states. Syrian crisis will be on the top of agenda. It would be a tightrope walk for Baghdad to show whether it is with its neighbouring Arab nations or with their arch rival Iran. The impact of Arab Spring, developments in Iran, Yemen , Sudan and the economy would be in focus during the summit.
For the Iraqi leadership, the summit is an opportunity to set aside their sectarian divide and reassert itself as a political player in the Arab world. Iraqi Prime Minister Nouri Al Maliki has said no efforts would be spared to make the summit a huge success
