Jumblat Meets Mufti Qabbani, Stresses Importance of Dialogue in Light of Upcoming Islamic-Christian Summit

Progressive Socialist Party leader MP Walid Jumblat stressed on Monday the importance of dialogue among all Lebanese in light of the Islamic-Christian summit scheduled to be held later this week.

He said after holding talks with Sunni Mufti Sheikh Mohammed Rashid Qabbani: “I think this an historic stand that Muslims and Christians would meet to announce their solidarity with all Arab people, especially the Egyptians who are passing through a critical phase caused by sectarian incitement.”

“We hope that stability and reform will be introduced to Syria in this turbulent stage it is enduring,” he continued.

The MP added that he will continue his visits to other spiritual leaders.
