Aoun Continues Consultations with Miqati, Others over KSA Row
President Michel Aoun on Monday was continuing his consultations “to address the repercussions of the decision that has been taken by the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and several Gulf countries which withdrew their ambassadors from Lebanon and asked the Lebanese ambassadors to leave,” the Presidency said.
“In this regard, President Aoun held consultations with Prime Minister Najib Miqati, who is taking part in the climate summit in the city of Glasgow, regarding the steps that must be taken to address these developments,” the Presidency added.
Miqati briefed the President on “the outcome of the contacts he made with a number of global officials taking part in the summit, which tackled the same subject,” the Presidency said.
It added that Aoun “is continuing his consultations in this regard based on the stance that he had announced Saturday, in which he stressed his keenness on establishing the best relations with KSA and the Gulf countries and the need to institutionalize these ties and address any disputes through direct dialogue.”
