Arab FMs try to revive summit

Arab foreign ministers have worked in extraordinary secrecy to resurrect a summit of their leaders that collapsed in March.

Ministers from the 22-nation Arab League, began on Saturday three days of talks conducted in extraordinary secrecy.

Delegates were not even allowed to use paper in their presentations out of fear the documents might make their way to the news media.

Only ministers were allowed to participate in most meetings to prevent their aides from leaking details.
