Franjieh maintains his nomination, Bassil promises 'cooperation'

Marada Movement chief Suleiman Franjieh told reporters after his meeting with Free Patriotic Movement chief Jebran Bassil on Wednesday that he is carrying on with his presidential nomination, a media report said on Thursday.

“Should there be consensus on someone else, he will resort to the 51 MPs who voted for him in the latest electoral session,” the PSP’s al-Anbaa news portal reported, citing Franjieh’s remarks to the reporters.

“He added that Bassil promised him to cooperate with him should he be elected president,” al-Anbaa added.
