Arab League See Russian Forces Withdrawal From Syria as 'Positive Step'
Syria's membership of the Arab League was suspended in 2011 after the beginning of violent protests in the country, which has later grown into a civil war.

"To return the place, an agreement should be achieved in Syria between the government and opposition," Ahmed Aboul Gheit said in a speech during his visit to the Sudanese capital of Khartoum.

The 22-member Arab League was created in 1945 to "safeguard their independence and sovereignty, and to consider in a general way the affairs and interests of the Arab countries," according to the Pact of the League of Arab States.
