The European Union’s arms embargo, which has prevented member nations from directly arming Syrian rebels, could be set to fall in the coming months, according to a Syrian rebel spokesman in Britain, who claimed a “breakthrough” in talks.
The latest round of EU talks on the matter, which saw Britain pushing hard for an abandonment of the embargo outright, saw a relaxation of the wording. In essence, nations can now send virtually anything but guns as “non-lethal aid.”
The next round of Friends of Syria talks, expected by early summer, are expected to scrap the embargo outright, with Britain and several other nations expected to start funneling arms directly into Syria.
That won’t sit well with Russia, which already complained about the US announcement of a $60 million package of aid that didn’t include weapons or ammunition. Russian officials have expressed concern that the aid and promises of more to come are discouraging the rebels from negotiating a settlement, and is keeping the war going.
This is to be expected from an entity that has recently received a "peace prize".
I am sure that David Cameron would love the idea.., he and his kingdom have lot to lose.., because England is no longer England but rather a third poor nation country begging for help from Saudi Arabia and UAE. But off course.., they have their demands which needs to be meet.., for one arming their illegitimate children's in syria so they have a playground.

Don´t you worry about that Ditz, Syria is an immensely red line for Russia (since it´s about it´s own security), China and the rest of the free world.
17 Russian warship just outside Syrias coast and the restoration of a permanent Russian fleet in the Mediterranean says that they are more than ready to handle any western impulsive or planned attempts to start a WW3. Openly arming the NATO merc´s in a futile hope that the non-existent "moderates" will take control and enable an imposed western regime of Tel avivs liking will of course back fire. Nobody, not even the medieval Saudi child molesters can control these retarded trolls once their in motion.
As I've been predicting. Everyone is going according to plan.
The US and NATO will be attacking Syria this year, to cover an Israeli attack on Hizballah in Lebanon.
Then after that resolves, we'll get the Iran war.
