Former Prime Minister Najib Mikati met Thursday at his Tripoli residence with a delegation from the Saudi Shura Council, headed by Saleh Bin Munea Al Khalewi, in presence of Saudi Ambassador to Lebanon Waleed Bukhari.
Mikati stressed that the Lebanese-Saudi relations have been strong and honest over many decades, since the establishment of the kingdom and the independence of Lebanon.
“We can never forget what Saudi Arabia has done for Lebanon since the war, by bringing the Lebanese and parliamentarians together in Taef and by being Lebanon’s support and friend through the difficult times,” Mikati added.
