Syrian opposition to choose PM in push for credibility Syrian National Coalition to pick provisional premier amid international diplomacy talks on the Syrian chemical weapons crisis
The main Syrian opposition umbrella group will appoint a provisional prime minister Saturday in a bid to raise its international credibility as high-stakes diplomacy plays out between Washington and Moscow to resolve Syria's two and a half year civil war, Syrian National Coalition officials said. After a week of intense international negotiations that threatened to sideline the Western and Arab backed coalition in the wake of a nerve gas attack on Damascus that killed hundreds of people, coalition officials said they reached consensus that Ahmad Tumeh, an independent Islamist, will be appointed to run rebel-held areas where a decline into chaos threatens to undermine the opposition to President Bashar Al-Assad. http://english.ahram.org.eg/News/81552.aspx
