Suleiman to Re-Launching Dialogue, Investing Resistance’s Weapons
Lebanese President Michel Suleiman announced that he is seeking to re-launch National Dialogue at Baabda Palace to discuss the country's defense strategy.
Confirming that "Lebanese defensive strategy should be based on the positive investment of the resistance weapons," the president's sources informed "as-Safir" Lebanese daily Saturday that "Suleiman met with the presidential team involved in the all-party talks to discuss what the National Dialogue has achieved and the reasons preventing the implementation of previous decisions."
"Suleiman believes that the confrontation of the Lebanese army to the "Israeli" violation in the southern town of Adeisseh and the resistance's readiness to intervene had the military asked for help, is an example of the expected national defense strategy," the sources explained.
Stating that "such a strategy is based on the positive investment of the resistance weapons," the paper revealed that "the President is to intensify his consultations with leaders of political parties early next year in hope that all bickering parties would agree to attend the National Dialogue."
"There are so far no common viewpoints between the different factions except for the acceptance of the concept of dialogue," Presidential sources admitted.
