Prime Minister-designate Saad Hariri on Wednesday met with President Michel Aoun at the Baabda Palace to discuss the government formation process.

“I'm very optimistic and I agreed with President Aoun on speeding up the Cabinet file because of the economic situation,” Hariri told reporters after the meeting.

“We will hold a second meeting soon and things are positive,” the PM-designate added.

“Listen to what I will say tomorrow,” Hariri went on to say, referring to his interview Thursday evening on MTV.

Speaker Nabih Berri had earlier announced that he sees a “glimmer of hope” in the Cabinet formation process. Noting that there seems to be “a balance in concessions” regarding the government, Berri said “the response to the Israeli threats lies in forming the government as soon as possible.”
