Pietton after Meeting Berri: We Hope New Government Will Respect International Agreements

French Ambassador to Lebanon Denis Pietton hoped on Thursday that the new government would be formed as soon as possible “because Lebanon is in need of its institutions.”

He said after holding talks with House Speaker Nabih Berri that the new government should also respect international agreements and maintain Lebanese unity.

The meeting also addressed regional developments, especially those in Libya.

Berri also met with Syrian Ambassador to Lebanon Ali Abdul Karim Ali in the presence of MP Ali Hasan Khalil.
