Paris might send to Lebanon an envoy other than Jean-Yves Le Drian, whose performance has been “criticized by Arab and Western officials,” a media report said.

Qatari envoy Jassem Al-Thani meanwhile left Beirut after a series of meetings with Lebanese forces, including Hezbollah, the Amal Movement and Marada Movement chief Suleiman Franjieh, al-Akhbar newspaper reported on Wednesday.

“It was notable that for the first time, the man did not mention names of candidates and did not carry any list. He rather focused his remarks on the idea of a third choice without delving into other details,” the daily added.
