Hariri in Tripoli for Meetings with al-Mustaqbal Supporters

Caretaker Premier Saad Hariri is scheduled to hold meetings with al-Mustaqbal leaderships and supporters in the northern port city of Tripoli on Wednesday.

As Safir daily said Hariri went to Tripoli on Tuesday night and is expected to reside at the Quality Inn hotel for three days.

Sources close to the Mustaqbal movement leader said that Hariri would wrap up his visit to Tripoli with a rally at the Rashid Karami International Fair Complex on Friday.

Hariri told delegations from Beirut families that visited him at the Center House on Tuesday night that “arms spread in cities and alleys … are threatening the security and stability of the Lebanese.”

He vowed to continue his campaign against Hizbullah’s arms until the state and the Lebanese army take control of them.

Hariri reiterated that the Special Tribunal for Lebanon would continue to operate despite efforts to target it.
