Berri reportedly preparing to visit Saudi Arabia
Parliament Speaker Nabih Berri is preparing to visit Riyadh in the coming period, should circumstances allow him to carry out such a visit, highly informed sources have said.
“He will try to play a certain role that would allow for reconciling viewpoints between his Hezbollah-led political camp and Saudi officials,” the sources told the Nidaa al-Watan newspaper in remarks published Saturday.
The Speaker “will discuss means to resolve the Lebanese crisis, starting by the presidential juncture,” the sources added.
The report comes a few hours after Saudi Arabia and Iran announced that they have decided to restore diplomatic ties following years of tensions.
