March 14 circles did not rule out on Wednesday the return of former Prime Minister Saad Hariri to Lebanon to make a surprise appearance at the parliament sessions aimed at discussing the government policy statement.

They told the Central News Agency that his attendance will grant the opposition political support during the session to grant cabinet confidence.

Hariri has been residing in Paris for the passed few weeks after reports that he was under threat of assassination.

Meanwhile, Speaker Nabih Berri’s circles told the news agency that the speaker is exerting efforts to allow the parliament sessions to pass without incident by immediately putting an end to heated political debates between the MPs similar to what happened earlier on Wednesday between MPs Khaled Daher and Assem Qanso.
