Saudi Blogger Mujtahid details Arab-KSA led efforts (four years too late) to end Syria war with Bashar staying (for sometime at least)

From Al-Akhbar but with Mujtahid quoted tweets… nevertheless… an interesting turn we are seeing in many media reports – the essence is a way to get an Arab agreement on Bashar staying (for now) and stopping this war.

Mohammad Ben Zayed made serious efforts to convince him.” He added that “the meeting between Ben Salman and Ali Mamlouk was part of this arrangement.
