Manama: At least 10 Arab leaders will attend the Arab summit in Baghdad, Iraq's ambassador to the Arab League has said.
"The other countries will be represented at the summit on March 29 by officials at various levels, according to their conditions," Qais Al Azzawi said, quoted by Kuwaiti daily Al Nahar on Sunday.
The ambassador said that the summit in Damascus in 2008 was attended by nine Arab leaders and that the Baghdad summit would host more leaders despite the special conditions in some Arab countries.
"There is consensus about the success of the summit and uprisings will dominate the issues on the agenda," he said.
