Second son of Rafik Hariri, the Leb PM who was assassinated in 2005. He has was prime minister in his own right from 2009 through early 2011. He was born in Riyadh to an Iraqi mother and graduated from Georgetown University. He managed his father's business interests in Riyadh until his father's assassination. When his father died he inherited a fortune of some $4.1 billion, which won't do him much good if Hizbullah has him bumped off, too.

Hariri's talks with Health Minister Wael Abou Faour, who is close to Jumblat, tackled "the current developments in the country," Hariri's press office said in a statement.

The ex-PM later met with Culture Minister Rony Araiji and ex-minister Youssef Saade of Franieh's Marada Movement in the presence of his adviser ex-MP Ghattas Khoury.

Talks addressed the latest political developments.

Later on Tuesday, Hariri met at the Center House with Berri's aide and Finance Minister Ali Hassan Khalil.

"The meeting lasted ten minutes and Khalil conveyed a message to Hariri," LBCI television said.

Following the meeting, a PSP delegation comprising Taimur Jumblat, Wael Abou Faour, Akram Shehayyeb and Ghazi Aridi visited Ain el-Tineh for talks with Berri in Khalil's presence.
