2010 Arab League summit

The Arab League 22nd Summit was held in Sirte, Libya on 27 March 2010.

Then-Italian prime minister Silvio Berlusconi spoke at the summit, stressing that Israel should return the Golan Heights to Syria.

Palestinian president Mahmoud Abbas rejected pressure from Syria and Libya to quit the peace process. His senior aide Nabil Abu Rudeineh said: "We are ready for any Arab option. If they want to go to war let them declare that and mobilize their armies and their people and we will follow suit".
