Berri Says Govt. Could Be Formed Sunday

Speaker Nabih Berri reflected some “positivism” regarding a breakthrough in the formation of the government, noting a “serious progress” in discussions likely leading to a final agreement on Sunday, al-Joumhouria daily reported on Saturday.

The level of optimism recorded a significant improvement in Ain el-Tineh (Berri’s residence) lately, said the daily.

"Things are progressing seriously, and we can say that the atmosphere today is more optimistic and more positive," Berri was quoted as telling his visitors.

“If this continues, the government may be born on Sunday,” he added.

He pointed out saying: “After the formation, the country is supposed to engage into a large and serious workshop at the governmental level. It should start meeting the challenges, first and foremost to find economic solutions, and at the level of the parliament which will accompany the government in this task.”
