Lebanese Senior Official Says FM Bassil May Not Attend Arab League Meeting- Asharq Al-Awsat


Lebanon’s foreign minister may not attend an Arab League meeting in Cairo on Sunday and a final decision will be taken in the morning, a senior Lebanese official told Reuters on Saturday.

Reuters cited the official as saying that Foreign Minister Gebran Bassil wanted to avoid an upfront confrontation at the meeting with Saudi Arabia and its Arab allies over the regional role the Iran-aligned Lebanese group Hezbollah is playing.
