Last Mustaqbal-Hizbullah Dialogue Session of 2015 Set for Thursday
The last round of dialogue between the rival Mustaqbal Movement and Hizbullah will be held on Thursday, reported al-Joumhouria newspaper on Tuesday.
It said that the talks were set for Monday, but the death of Speaker Nabih Berri's sister prompted their postponement.
The dialogue is being held under the speaker's sponsorship and at his Ain el-Tineh residence.
Like previous rounds, Thursday's discussions are expected to focus on the latest developments in the country, most notably the presidential deadlock.
Mustaqbal Movement leader MP Saad Hariri has been spearheading efforts to nominate Marada Movement chief MP Suleiman Franjieh as president, sparking objections from his allies in the March 14 camp and reservations from Change and Reform bloc head MP Michel Aoun, of the March 8 camp.
Lebanon has been without a president since May 2014 when the term of Michel Suleiman ended without the election of successor.
Ongoing disputes between the rival March 8 and 14 camps over a compromise candidate have thwarted the polls.
