2005 Arab League summit

The 2005 Arab League summit, officially 17th Ordinary Session of the Council of the League of Arab States at the Summit Level, was a regular summit that was held in Algiers, Algeria in March 2005.[1] The city hosted the summit for the third time, following 1973 and 1988. Prior to the conference, the foreign ministers met to agree on proposals that will be presented to the leaders for approval. The Palestinian issue, the unrest in Lebanon and Iraq, Egypt's bid for a permanent seat on the Security Council, and political reform in the member nations were all topics of discussion at the summit.[2]
