Nasrallah-Hariri Meeting Seriously Possible
Hizbullah”s politburo member Mahmoud Qamati said that a meeting gathering between the party”s Secretary-General Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah and al-Mustaqbal movement leader MP Saad Hariri is seriously under consideration.
In an interview on Saturday evening with the al-Jadid TV, Qamati said: "our channels are open to the other side particularly to al-Mustaqbal."
He added: "we are currently holding bilateral meetings among opposition figures, this could include former Parliament Speaker Nabih Berri who might meet with opposition leading figures."
The process might include he head of the “Change and Reform” parliamentary bloc MP Michel Aoun.
Qamati said that the recent meeting between Nasrallah and Progressive Socialist Party leader MP Walid Jumblat "was an independent meeting. The meeting did not aim to send message through Jumblat for discussing bilateral issues."
"Hizbullah”s stance on whether we participate in government or not, is a matter that is being discussed but not yet decided, all our options are open in cooperation with our allies. Moreover, the issue of whether our allies would be represented in government is also being studied. "
Qamati referred to all of the above as "a basket of understandings."
He rejected the existence of any verbal quarrels between Maronite Patriarch Nasrallah Sfeir and Hizbullah Secretary-General Hassan Nasrallah "we don”t want to reach this stage." Qamati said.
