BEIRUT: The Future Movement and Hezbollah agreed Monday to exert efforts to end the Cabinet paralysis during their 13th dialogue session, as the government was set to skip its meeting for the second consecutive week.
“Attendees discussed developments and the situation in the country, and they highlighted the necessity of continuing the dialogue and the implementation of security plans, along with creating an enabling atmosphere to ensure the functioning of constitutional institutions,” said a terse statement issued after the three-hour meeting.
The contentious issue of security appointments has crippled the government’s work and prompted Prime Minister Tammam Salamto suspend meetings.
