REPORT: Policy statement drafting committee fails, discussions referred to cabinet
The tenth meeting of the policy statement drafting committee, held on Tuesday afternoon at the Grand Serail, ended with the referral of the discussions to the cabinet, which is set to hold a session at the Baabda Presidential Palace on Thursday.

In this regard, Labor Minister Sejaan Azzi stressed that the meeting ended without reaching a final draft for the policy statement, noting that the discussions were objective and calm, and that each party presented its point of view.

Azzi pointed out that March 14 camp believes that every resistance, whether it was popular, official or institutional, must be under the authority of the Lebanese state, but the other team, mainly Hezbollah insists that the resistance should be free in its acts and movements.

The minister said that PM Tamam Salam decided to refer the outcome of the meetings to the cabinet in order to discuss them with President Michel Sleiman.

Lebanon announced on February 15 the formation of a new government after more than 10 months of political deadlock.        

Following the announcement of the new cabinet, Prime Minister Tammam Salam stressed the importance of creating a positive atmosphere to resume national dialogue in order to resolve all pending issues under the auspices of President Michel Sleiman.
