August 9, 2010 - Now Lebanon - Jumblatt aims to arrange a Hariri-Nasrallah meeting

Ad-Diyar newspaper reported on Monday that Progressive Socialist Party leader MP Walid Jumblatt wants to arrange a meeting between Prime Minister Saad Hariri and Hezbollah Secretary General Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah.

According to the daily, Jumblatt is waiting for Hariri to return from his family vacation in Sardinia in order to meet with him to discuss the issue of the Special Tribunal for Lebanon’s (STL) – formed to probe the 2005 assassination of former Prime Minister Rafik Hariri – pending indictment.

Nasrallah said during a July press conference that Hariri told him in May the STL will indict Hezbollah members.

He also said earlier last week that he will reveal during a press conference on August 9 irrefutable evidence proving that Israel was behind the assassination.

The aim of a Hariri-Nasrallah meeting is to avoid political divisions in order to prevent anyone from targeting the Resistance.
