Berri to Find 'Formula' with Hizbullah over Cabinet Sessions

The Baabda meeting between President Michel Aoun, Parliament Speaker Nabih Berri and Prime Minister Najib Miqati was obviously a positive milestone, but many points remained unresolved, al-Liwaa newspaper said.

An understanding needs to be reached with Hizbullah, the newspaper said, adding that Berri "has showed flexibility" and has promised "to solve Hizbullah’s objections and to work on finding a practical formula."

Also "no judicial solution has been found concerning the dismissal of lead investigator in Beirut port blast Judge Tarek Bitar," the newspaper said.

Well informed sources told al-Liwaa that the meeting, that broke the ice between Aoun and Berri, indicates that files are being discussed and that a dialogue has started but the date for an upcoming Cabinet session has not been set yet.
