Final resolutions have passed at the closing of the Arab League Summit, calling on Israel to accept a 2002 Arab land-for-peace proposal and backing Israeli-Palestinian peace negotiations.

Syria's Foreign Minister, Walid al-Moallem, says that the Arab nations are ready for peace with Israe.

"The road is clear for those who want peace. There are requirements for peace, based on resolutions outlined by the (United Nations) Security Council."

Arab leaders and representatives discuss inter-Arab relations and the general situation in the region, focusing on three main topics, including the latest developments in Iraq and the Palestinian territories besides the issue of joint Arab action.

The two-day summit, starting on Saturday in the southern suburb of Damascus, adopts the Damascus Declaration on a series of key Arab issues.

The declaration underlines commitment to boosting Arab solidarity in protecting Arab security and overcoming inter-Arab differences through serious dialogue.

Only 11 Arab leaders, including President Bashar al-Assad of the host Syria, participates in the event, half of the 22-member pan-Arab bloc.
