French Ambassador to Lebanon Bruno Foucher held talks Tuesday in Saifi with Kataeb Party chief MP Sami Gemayel.

The meeting, which was held in the presence of MP Samer Saade and Kataeb's foreign affairs coordinator Marwan Abdallah, tackled “the latest developments in the region and the extent of their impact on the domestic situation in Lebanon, amid the growing tensions and the political, military and economic pressures,” a Kataeb statement said.

The conferees also discussed “the issue of refugees and the burden they have started creating for Lebanon at all levels.”

Gemayel meanwhile explained to the French guest the plan that Kataeb has suggested to ensure “a safe return by the refugees to their country under the supervision of international organizations and the international community.”

According to Kataeb's statement, the plan consists of short-, medium- and long-term phases.
