Fayyad Holds 'Fruitful' Talks with Miqati after Latest Clash
Energy Minister Walid Fayyad announced Thursday that he held a “fruitful” meeting with Prime Minister Najib Miqati at the Grand Serail, after the latest Cabinet session witnessed a heated exchange between them that reportedly prompted Miqati to tell Fayyad to “shut up.”
“The meeting with Mr. Premier was fruitful and we continued in it the discussion of the plan aiming to revive the electricity sector,” Fayyad said after the talks, noting that the media reports about the latest Cabinet session “took issues in another direction” and that Miqati “lauded the nature of the plan that we presented.”
“We discussed the creation of a regulatory commission and the need that parliament pledge to look into the gaps that are present in Law 462,” the minister went on to say.
