Leb: 5 nations to nominate army chief, Doha to convince Iran
|
| Finally, someone steps forward. They’re as bad as Belgium when it comes to governments. |
[An Nahar] The five-nation committee on Lebanon is inclined to endorse the presidential nomination of Army chief General Joseph Aoun and Qatar will seek to convince Iran of him due to the good relations between the two countries, a media report said on Saturday.
The report comes two days before the arrival in Beirut of French Special Presidential Envoy for Lebanon Jean-Yves Le Drian.
Sources with close ties to the five-nation committee told the Nidaa al-Watan newspaper that all efforts will now be focused on Aoun's nomination and that the five countries will "exert all the needed pressure in this regard."
"This pressure might lead to positive results or it might not should domestic obstacles emerge," the sources added.
Army chief tells Raad he's ready to be president if there's consensus
[An Nahar] The undeclared meeting between Army chief General Joseph Aoun and Hezbollah’s top lawmaker Mohammed Raad tackled the security situations, the Kahale incident and the UNIFIL resolution as well as the presidential file, media reports said.
According to ad-Diyar newspaper, Aoun told Raad that he is not currently engaged in the presidential battle, but is willing to assume the post if there is “national consensus” over his nomination.
Raad for his part reiterated to Aoun that Hezbollah is clinging to Marada Movement chief Suleiman Franjieh’s nomination at the moment, the daily added.
Al-Akhbar newspaper meanwhile quoted Raad as telling Aoun that Hezbollah is “linking the future of the presidency to inter-Lebanese dialogue.”
