Sources told LBCI that President Michel Aoun met on Tuesday morning with Samir al-Khatib.
Samir al-Khatib’s candidacy for premiership depends on his negotiations with Amal Movement, Hezbollah and the Free Patriotic Movement, as well as on the support of caretaker Prime Minister Saad Hariri.
Sources also noted that a decisive statement will be issued by caretaker Foreign Minister Gebran Bassil in the afternoon.
