CAIRO (AA) - March 24, 2013 - Moaz al-Khatib resigned Sunday as the leader of the National Coalition for Syrian Revolutionary and Opposition Forces.
"I had promised our great people, and I promised God that I will resign if some red lines were crossed, and I fulfilled my promise today and announced my resignation from the National Coalition; so that I can work freely [which] cannot be provided within the official institutions," Al-Khatib said on his Facebook page.
He did not elaborate what those "red lines" were.
Walid al-Bunni, spokesperson of the Syrian National Coalition, confirmed the resignation saying that al-Khatib quit because of disagreement over the formation of the interim Syrian government.
