Hariri Meets Saudi Ambassador: They Tried to Eliminate Us Politically

Caretaker Prime Minister Saad Hariri discussed with the Saudi Ambassador to Lebanon Ali Awadh Assiri the latest developments and bilateral ties.

Hariri met Assiri late on Friday at the Center House, reported the pan-Arab daily al-Hayat on Saturday.

“The other camp tried to abolish us politically,” Hariri said Thursday during a meeting with delegations that visited him.

He remarked that his coalition isn’t trying to eliminate any camp, adding that “we will do our best to end the tutelage of arms.”

The weapons are “affecting the rise of the state, the development of the economy, and the advancement of Lebanon," Hariri reiterated.
