Berri for “Lowering Tension” to Solve Cabinet Crisis
Speaker Nabih Berri has reportedly called for lowering tension and said he was making efforts with President Michel Suleiman and Druze leader Walid Jumblat to solve the cabinet crisis.
It is "important to lower tension because this affects the country and the issue of cabinet formation negatively," lawmakers, who visited Berri on Wednesday, quoted the speaker as saying.
Following their weekly meeting with Berri in parliament, the MPs also said the speaker was making efforts with Suleiman and Jumblat to find a solution to the cabinet issue.
Berri, according to the lawmakers, hoped "positive results would be reached through dialogue."
