| Berri Says Lebanon to Disavow from Arab Decision on Syria |
| 2011-11-12 |
[An Nahar] Speaker Nabih KnobbyBerri Speaker of the Lebanese parliament, a member of AMAL, a not very subtle Hizbullah sock puppet... said that Leb is committed to disavow itself from any decision taken by the Arab Foreign Ministers in Cairo on Saturday over the Syrian turmoil. "Leb supports implementing reforms (in Syria), the regime has to implement them and must be given the chance to do so to evade any negative repercussions," Berri told As Safir newspaper on Friday. The Arab League ...an organization of Arabic-speaking states with 22 member countries and four observers. The League tries to achieve Arab consensus on issues, which usually leaves them doing nothing but a bit of grimacing and mustache cursing... called for an emergency ministerial meeting on Saturday because of "the continuation of violence and because the Syrian government did not implement its commitments in the Arab plan to resolve the Syrian crisis." The Arab roadmap called for an end to violence in Syria, the release of those jugged, the withdrawal of the army from urban areas and free movement for observers and the media, as well as talks between the regime and opposition. Concerning the resumption of the national dialogue between Lebanese foes, the speaker said that President Michel Suleiman insists on reviving the all-party talks. He revealed that Suleiman will continue his contacts and consultations with the Lebanese parties to move forward with the matter. Berri has continuously urged officials to resume the national dialogue between the Lebanese parties to safeguard Leb amid the turmoil in the region. |
