Mikati meets Berri over Arab League summit

Caretaker Prime Minister Najib Mikati and Parliament Speaker Nabih Berri met Wednesday in Ain el-Tineh over the upcoming Arab League Summit in Jeddah.

"We discussed the points that I will raise at the Summit," Mikati said. "The meeting, like usual, was positive," he added.

Mikati will address the Arab countries in the summit on Friday and is expected to urge them to help crisis-hit Lebanon.

He will likely meet with Syrian President Bashar al-Assad on the summit's sidelines.
