Miqati Reportedly Postpones Baabda Visit at Paris Request
Prime Minister-designate Najib Miqati on Wednesday postponed a visit to the Baabda Palace to Thursday, al-Jadeed TV said.
“The postponement of Miqati’s visit to Baabda today came after French interventions that requested some time to resolve some obstacles,” the TV network added.
Lebanese journalist Simon Abi Fadel meanwhile told al-Jadeed that Paris had communicated Monday with Miqati to “urge him not to allocate the energy portfolio to the Free Patriotic Movement.”
