Speaker Nabih Berri said on Monday that he supports President Michel Suleiman's announcement that he would re-launch the national dialogue, stressing the importance of multiparty talks to "avoid all kinds of problems and disputes."
In a statement to As-Safir newspaper, Berri said "I am ready to participate again in the national dialogue... it plays a major role in calming people down and renders communication easy".

Also, Berri assured that "the defense strategy has been resolved through the formula of the people-army-resistance mentioned in the policy statement." He further stressed that "PM Najib Miqati announced his support to this formula through his visit to the south" on Saturday.

"The formula of the army, people and resistance was adopted by two previous cabinets led by March 14 officials, before it was approved by the new government led by a centrist," he also told the daily.

Berri noted that the government will exert all efforts to discuss the political and living issues during the cabinet meeting.
