JERUSALEM — Members of the Syrian opposition are pressing to openly announce an affiliation with the Muslim Brotherhood at a meeting scheduled to take place in Turkey later this week, according to informed Middle Eastern security officials.
The opposition has been plagued by infighting, with competing divisions sparing with each other even since the movement was created in September.
Just last week, Syrian National Council leader Burhan Ghalioun announced his resignation after major divisions within his council reached a climax two days after the coalition voted to renew his term for another three months.
Ghalioun has faced criticism from some opposition members of being too close to the Muslim Brotherhood and of trying to monopolize power within the SNC.
“I will not allow myself to be the candidate of division,” he said. “I am not attached to the position, so I announce that I will step down after a new candidate has been chosen, either by consensus or through new elections.”
