Assad blames Saudis, Turkey for Annan plan failure

Syrian President Bashar Assad has accused Saudi Arabia, Qatar and Turkey for the failure of UN and Arab league special envoy Kofi Annan's plan on the Syrian conflict, The Voice of Russia reported.

"We know that Annan meets with many obstacles, but his plan not to fail, it is a very good plan ... The main obstacle is that many countries do not even want to see it successfully implemented, so they offer political support to terrorists and continue to supply Syria with weapons and money," Assad said.

According to the Syrian leader, Saudi Arabia and Qatar supply the rebels with weapons, and Turkey, in turn, "provides logistical support to the smuggling."
