Lebanon’s deputy PM distances himself from reported comment on US envoy’s 'paper'

Lebanon's Deputy Prime Minister Tarek Mitri moved to clarify remarks attributed to him, stressing that he never used the phrase “Barrack's paper fell” in reference to U.S. envoy Tom Barrack.

Mitri explained that during the interview, his comment was limited to noting that Barrack had not brought any new proposals from Israel. He said the phrase was introduced by the interviewer, not by him.

“I only said that Barrack did not bring anything new from Israel,” Mitri stated, distancing himself from the wording that circulated recently.

استخدمت المحاوره عبارة " سقطت ورقة باراك" ولم استخدمها انا. اكتفيت بالقول ان باراك لم يأت من اسرائيل بأي جديد.
