Hariri tells Kouchner: No to the resignation of the government
2007-12-07
LebanonÂ’ s parliament majority leader MP Saad Hariri told French Foreign Minister Bernard Kouchner that he rejects the resignation of Prime Minister Fouad Saniora's government prior to the amendment of the constitution and election of a new president .

Hariri reiterated what Communications Minister Marwan Hemade said earlier “ the ruling majority has given everything we have," He stressed that he is open to any discussion "but after the presidential election."

He was quoted as telling Kouchner that” if the opposition is facing obstacles, then this is the problem of the opposition and they should settle amongst themselves , just like we did when we dropped our rejection to amending the constitution despite the reservations of some of our allies."

Al Manar TV, the mouthpiece of Hezbollah has reported that the opposition may meet tonight at the residence of former General Michel Aoun to discuss the issues .
