Diab says ready to resort to seclusion to pressure cabinet formation

Caretaker Prime Minister Hassan Diab threatened on Saturday in a speech to stop performing his duties to pressure politicians to form a new government.

 

"If seclusion helps with cabinet formation then I am ready to resort to it, although it goes against my convictions for it disrupts the entire state and is detrimental to the Lebanese," Diab said in a televised speech.
