Suleiman Meets Miqati, Discusses 2nd Round of National Dialogue

President Michel Suleiman held talks on Saturday with Prime Minister Najib Miqati who briefed him on his recent visit to Brazil.

According to the National News Agency, Miqati informed Suleiman on his meetings with officials in Rio de Janeiro and the Lebanese community there.

The meeting also addressed the preparations for the second round of the national dialogue table that is scheduled to be held at the Baabda Palace on Monday.

The NNA said that Suleiman also headed meetings that tackled the suggestions and issues that could be discussed during the all-party talks.

Lebanese foes gathered at the Baabda Palace on June 11 and voiced their support to the Lebanese army and agreed to detach Lebanon from the Syrian crisis and the regional and international conflicts, rejecting the setting up of a buffer zone in northern Lebanon along the border with Syria.

The second round is expected to tackle the controversial defense strategy, Hizbullah’s arsenal, weapons spread across the country in addition to armed Palestinian bases outside the refugee camps.
