Syria's foreign minister says the decision by the U.S. and Western countries to arm rebel groups is "very dangerous" and will prolong the violence and killing in the country.

Walid al-Moallem also says sending weapons to the opposition will hinder efforts to bring both sides to the table in a planned peace conference in Geneva.
