| Aoun, Hariri vow to work for positive solution |
| 2007-11-01 |
| Lebanese ruling majority leader Saad Hariri and Christian opposition leader Michel Aoun vowed Wednesday - after meeting for 3 hours in the French capital Paris - to work hard to reach a solution that would allow the election a president for Lebanon. 'We came here to solve a difficult problem and it seems all of the leaders are making an effort,' Aoun said from Paris. Aoun denied Lebanese media reports that an agreement had been reached on president and prime minister, saying that there was a 'growing desire' to reach an agreement 'but such an issue is still under discussion.' In answering a question about agreeing with Hariri on a presidential candidate, Aoun told reporters "the topic has not been discussed yet." A second round of talks is scheduled for later in the evening, Aoun told his Orange Television. |
