Head of the Mustaqbal Movement MP Saad Hariri and Lebanese Forces leader and presidential candidate Samir Geagea held talks on Friday in the French capital Paris, reported the daily An Nahar on Saturday.

It said that Geagea is scheduled to also hold talks with various French officials on the latest Lebanese developments.

Informed sources told al-Akhbar newspaper Saturday that Geagea's trip to Paris took place at France's behest in order to discuss the elections and his position on several political and economic affairs, most notably Lebanon's oil wealth.

Two other presidential candidates, who were not named, had also visited France prior to Geagea, they revealed.

Geagea embarked on an Arab and European tour on Friday that will reportedly include Saudi Arabia.
