W460

Relations are back on track between the U.S. administration and Lebanese Army chief Rodolphe Haykal, whose performance -- according to U.S. sources -- has changed, the Nidaa al-Watan newspaper reported on Tuesday.

“Haykal will visit the United States in late January or early February and the visit has won approval,” the daily said, adding that the trip will have the same agenda as the visit that was canceled in November.

The commander will meet with the U.S. army chief, senior Pentagon and State Department officials, and a number of Congress members, Nidaa al-Watan added.
