Muallem: Lebanon’s Stability Lies in National Unity Government that Includes All Segments of Society

Syrian Foreign Minister Walid Muallem stated on Wednesday that the process of forming a national unity government in Lebanon has reached its final stage, stressing his country’s keenness on Lebanon achieving national unity.

He said before a delegation of Kuwaiti journalists: “Stability in Lebanon lies in a national unity government that includes all segments of the society, which is what Prime Minister-designate Najib Miqati is aiming to achieve.”

Furthermore, the minister emphasized that Syria is eager to establish the best ties with Lebanon, hoping that the 18 agreements that were signed under Caretaker Prime Minister Saad Hariri’s government would be implemented.

Muallem noted that Miqati proved his centrist position when he was a prime minister the first time in 2005.
