Suleiman to Resume Dialogue Consultations at Beiteddine on Tuesday

President Michel Suleiman is expected on Tuesday to continue his consultations with top Lebanese officials to hear their viewpoints on his invitation for the national dialogue.

Suleiman moves to his summer residence in Beiteddine on Tuesday where he would hold talks with the officials on the all-party talks which he insists to hold to resolve the differences between the March 8 and 14 forces.

Ministerial sources told As Safir daily on Monday that the president will not yield until he achieves his objective of holding the talks at Baabda palace.

They warned that there would be more division among the Lebanese if they don’t meet at the dialogue table. “It is unfortunate that there are differences and divisions over the issue of the maritime border demarcation and oil resources in the absence of dialogue.”

Suleiman is scheduled to throw an Iftar banquet in honor of political and spiritual officials on August 11 where he is expected to stress the importance of dialogue.
