Secretary-General of the Arab League Nabil el-Araby announced the names of the attendees to represent the Assad regime at the International Syria Conference to be held at the end of May. Nabil el-Araby held a press conference in the Egyptian capital of Cairo and stated that the names of the people to represent the Assad regime were submitted to Russia. Evaluating Russian attitude towards the Syria crisis, el-Araby said, \"There has been some changes in the attitude of Russia. At first they believed in Assad to be an indispensible part of the transition government. Now, they believe the Syrian people would determine the fate of Assad.\" Meanwhile, Syrian National Coalition for Opposition and Revolutionary Forces (SMDK) was carrying out meetings to select the participants for the conference. Following the Moscow visit of US Secretary of State John Kerry, US and Russia decided that an international conference would be organized to discuss the Syria issue.
