Berri says no 'trap' in Jan. 9 session
Speaker Nabih Berri has said that he is still optimistic regarding the presidential file, noting that he had called for the Jan. 9 electoral session more than a month prior to its date to give everyone several weeks to conduct discussions and reach agreements.
"On the session day, we will go to parliament and the session will be fruitful, as I have already said," Berri told al-Joumhouria newspaper.
Berri also rejected the opposition's suggestion that there might be a trap in the session.
