Hariri, Pope Discuss Recent Developments in Vatican Meeting
Former Prime Minister Saad Hariri held talks on Wednesday with Pope Benedict XVI at the Vatican.
The two discussed the latest developments in the region and the importance of exerting all the possible efforts to achieve peace, Hariri's press office said in a statement.
Hariri thanked the Pope on his recent visit to Lebanon, expressing appreciation for his support to Lebanon and presenting it as an “example of balance” in the region and the world.
The pope visited Lebanon in September bringing a message of peace, where he signed the Apostolic Exhortation.
The meeting was attended by Lebanon's Ambassador to the Vatican George Khoury, Nader Hariri and adviser Daoud al-Sayegh.
