Bukhari from Clemenceau: Solutions come from within Lebanon

Saudi Ambassador to Lebanon Walid Bukhari has continued his visits to Lebanon’s political leaders by meeting with Progressive Socialist Party chief Walid Jumblat in Clemenceau.

“We have always stressed that sustainable solutions come from within Lebanon and not from abroad,” Bukhari said after the talks.

MP Wael Abu Faour, who attended the meeting, for his part said that Bukhari “reiterated the constants of the Saudi stance.”

“The kingdom calls for finalizing the presidential vote as soon as possible and with the consensus of the Lebanese, in order to avoid further collapse,” Abu Faour added.

“The kingdom does not have a presidential candidate nor a veto on any candidate. It rather hopes for the agreement of the Lebanese and considers the presidential juncture to be a sovereign Lebanese juncture whose decision belongs to the Lebanese themselves,” the MP went on to say.
