Egyptian FM Hails Suleiman's Efforts to Safeguard Stability
Egyptian Foreign Minister Mohammed Kamel Amr praised on Wednesday efforts exerted by President Michel Suleiman to maintain stability in Lebanon.
Voice of Lebanon radio (100.5) reported that the two officials discussed during a meeting at the Baabda Palace the bilateral ties and the regional situation.
Amr also held talks with Prime Minister Najib Miqati at the Grand Serail.
He described the meeting as "fruitful."
The Egyptian FM stressed earlier after a meeting with his Lebanese counterpart FM Adnan Mansour at Bustros Palace that the timeline of his meetings with Lebanese officials doesn't hold any political indications.
“I haven't met so far with any Hizbullah official,” Amr told reporters.
The FM arrived on Tuesday in Beirut for a two-day visit, where he kicked off his meetings by holding talks with Lebanese Forces leader Samir Geagea in Maarab.
He also met with Speaker Nabih Berri, Phalange Party leader Amin Gemayel and al-Mustaqbal parliamentary bloc head MP Fouad Saniora.
“I conveyed a message from President Mohammed Moursi that our country supports Lebanon and is ready for a role that would be accepted by all the Lebanese,” he said.
Amr pointed out that Egypt in the era of Morsi “will be better” than it was under the governess of Egypt's ousted president Hosni Mubarak.
