The Arab League in Cairo has decided to hold its foreign ministerial meeting at a hotel close to Cairo airport following the protests that are engulfing Tahrir Square. The meeting, which was due to be held earlier Wednesday, was supposed to be at the usual headquarters close to Tahrir Square but the ongoing chaos compelled the League to change the venue,. This afternoon's meeting is to be headed by Qatari Prime Minister and League chief Sheikh Hamad Bin Khalifa Al-Thani, whose country heads the current Arab League membership. Another meeting was supposed to be held prior to the afternoon's, for the Committee of Six appointed last meeting to discuss the Syrian situation after the League faield to convince Bashar Al-Assad's regime to stop killing pro-democracy demnostrators in Syria. Assad earlier welcomed the Arab initiative but has since spectacularly failed to follow up on the peace plan. The observer mission approved by the Arab League to oversee the Syrian situation hit hurdles after Syria proposed changes to the original plan which were not approved by the league.
