Hariri Holds Talks with Jumblat in Clemenceau

Prime Minister Saad Hariri held talks Wednesday evening in Clemenceau with Progressive Socialist Party leader MP Walid Jumblat.

A PSP statement said the meeting was held in the presence of Jumblat's son Taimur and MP Wael Abu Faour.

Talks tackled “the latest political developments in Lebanon and the region,” the terse PSP statement added.

“With Sheikh Saad Hariri, there is a long history of joint struggle and bright turning points for the sake of Lebanon and its stability and advancement,” Jumblat tweeted after the meeting.

“Today, the challenge we are facing is much bigger than that of the past. Solidarity with him and with his reformist vision is more than necessary to shore up the new rule, which has demonstrated high resilience and courage amid the extraordinary circumstances,” Jumblat added.
