Conflicting Reports on Whether Meeting Between Miqati and Envoys of Berri, Nasrallah, Aoun was Held

There were conflicting reports on Friday on whether a meeting between Premier-designate Najib Miqati and the envoys of Speaker Nabih Berri, Hizbullah leader Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah and Free Patriotic Movement chief Michel Aoun was held the day before.

An Nahar daily quoted March 8 sources as saying that the meeting that was scheduled to be held between Miqati, MP Ali Hassan Khalil, Hussein Khalil and Jebran Bassil on Thursday afternoon was postponed in a sign that the three envoys haven’t yet prepared answers to some specific points.

According to As Safir newspaper, the meeting was postponed “indefinitely.”

But pan-Arab daily al-Hayat said that the three men met with Miqati to discuss the demands of FPM leader Michel Aoun on the portfolios and the names of candidates for the ministries.
