BEIRUT, Nov 28 (Reuters) - Syria's Foreign Minister Walid al-Moualem said on Monday an Arab League decision to impose economic sanctions on his country had closed off attempts to reach a deal to end eight months of violence.
Moualem told a televised news conference that his country had made every effort to find a way out of the crisis. "Yesterday, with the decision they took, they closed these windows," he said. (Reporting by Dominic Evans; Editing by Louise Ireland)
