Qatar's prime minister has claimed that the only way to resolve the insurgency in Syria was to arm militants who fight against President Bashar al-Assad.

"Force is necessary to achieve justice. And the provision of weapons is the only way to achieve peace in Syria's case," Sheikh Hamad bin Jassim al-Thani told ministers from Western and Arab states who support the insurgency against Mr. Assad, on Saturday.
