Taymour Jumblat Urges 'Communication', Meets Tony Franjieh

The head of the Democratic Gathering MP Taymour Jumblat tweeted Thursday that “it is necessary to realize the importance of keeping the channels of communication open.”

“We must maintain our belief that dialogue is always a positive step towards overcoming all crises in order to strengthen stability and protect the country,” he added.

Also on Thursday, Jumblat met with a Marada Movement delegation led by MP Tony Franjieh.

Discussions tackled the current political developments according to the National News Agency.

Franjieh’s father and Marada chief Suleiman Franjieh had on Wednesday held a historic reconciliation agreement with Lebanese Forces leader Samir Geagea.

The meeting turned the page on a 40-year-long rift between the two parties.
