Qatari Prime Minister Khalifa bin Hamad Al Thani stated on Thursday that media rumors concerning the likely resumption of Syria's membership in the Arab League (LAS) were unconfirmed.

Arab sources reported on Tuesday that the Gulf Cooperation Council is scheduled to meet on Friday to discuss Syria's reintegration into the Arab League. 

During an interview with Qatar's broadcaster, the Prime Minister called Qatar's position "clear" on the matter, explaining that Syria's suspension came about for reasons and that those reasons still exist.
