A delegation from the Syrian Coalition will be present at the Friends of Syria Conference on April 20, 2013. The delegation includes: The Syrian Coalition president Moaz Al Khatib, The Prime Minister of The Interim Government Ghassan Hitto, The Coalition Vice Presidents George Sabra, Suhair Atassi and Riad Sief, The General Secretariat Mustafa Sabbagh, and General Salim Idris.

Expected guests will arrive from The United States, France, The United Kingdom, Italy, Germany, and several Arab nations.

The meetings will take place from 6pm-11pm at an undisclosed location.

The Syrian delegation hopes that, during this meeting, it will attain more support from the international community. While humanitarian aid is a dire necessity, the Syrian opposition is also looking for support that will enable the immediate fall of the regime and an end to the suffering of the Syrian people.
