Mustaqbal Delegation Tackles Latest Developments with Hariri in Saudi Arabia

A meeting held on Sunday between former Prime Minister Saad Hariri and a delegation from al-Mustaqbal movement addressed the on going crises in Lebanon, local newspapers reported on Monday.

According to al-Joumhouria newspaper, discussions with the delegation, which is comprised of ex-PM Fouad Saniora and MPs Ahmed Fatfat and Nohad al-Mashnouq, focused on the formation of the cabinet and the resumption of the national dialogue.

The newspaper reported that Hariri will contact Phalange Party leader Amin Gemayel and Lebanese Forces leader Samir Geagea to coordinate their stances ahead of a meeting for the March 14 leaders this week.

The meeting is expected to tackle the ongoing developments locally.

Sources close to al-Mustaqbal undermined the importance of the visit, saying: “It's not the first time that a delegation from al-Mustaqbal heads to Saudi Arabia to meet with Hariri and discuss the latest developments.

However, ministerial sources considered the the visit “extraordinary.”

Al-Joumhouria reported that a previous meeting was held in Saudi Arabia with a delegation that included al-Mustaqbal secretary-general Ahmed al-Hariri, Nader al-Hariri and several lawmakers and advisers.
