Fourteen members of the opposition Syrian National Coalition announced the formation of a new political bloc next week, with the aim of reviving the national role of the key opposition group to serve the people and the revolution, sources told Zaman al-Wasl.
The ‘National Accord’ bloc seeks to create a balance inside the Coalition, away from the polarizing political partisanship, "with the hope it can play a monitoring and supervisory role in order to bring back the essential role of the Coalition as a national institution founded to serve the Syrians’ revolution,’" a source said.
The bloc, which has kept the door open for more members to join, said it would announce its political agenda next week.
Zaman al-Wasl has obtained the names of the 14 members:
1. George Sabra, head of the Syrian National Council
2. Mohammed al-Dandal
3. Abdul Basset Seida
4. Samir Nashar
5. Khalid Nasser
