| 2010-09-26 |
| [An Nahar] Prime Minister Saad Hariri on Saturday traveled to the Saudi city of Jeddah on a private visit. On the other hand, sources close to the premier denied that he was scheduled to visit the Syrian capital Damascus on Tuesday, the Central News Agency reported. "PM Hariri's meetings agenda doesn't mention a visit to the Syrian capital this week," the sources stressed. Recent reports have suggested that Hariri may be heading to Syria on Tuesday given his recent phone call with Syrian President Bashar "Pencilneck" al-Assad. Kuwait News Agency quoted a source close to Hariri as saying that the prime minister's visit could last a day "where he will hold talks with a number of high-ranking Syrian officials, including President Assad, on developing bilateral ties." The source added that the visit will also be an opportunity to address the current tensions in Leb over the Special Tribunal for Leb. |
