There is nothing new in the presidential crisis except for the continuation of the French effort with Saudi Arabia, which is still governed by passive stagnation and raises more fears, and anticipation of the results of the French-Saudi meeting that took place yesterday in Paris, and came after the Iranian-Saudi agreement.
The meeting was attended by Counselor Nizar Aloula and Ambassador Walid Al-Bukhari on the Saudi side, and on the French side, Patrick Dorrell, the French President’s Adviser for Near Eastern Affairs. No joint statement was issued, except for the leaking of information that falls within the framework of the two parties’ general vision of the presidential crisis.
The leaked information focused on the fact that “the French are trying to benefit from the Saudi-Iranian agreement to pass the settlement that they proposed previously.” However, “the Saudi position did not leave the framework of negativity, and it still, when rejecting the principle of bartering between the presidency and the government, and accepting the election of the head of the Marada Movement, Suleiman Franjieh, as president.” .
Informed sources said, “The Riyadh delegation, before leaving for Paris, returned to presenting specific standards and specifications and talking about reforms.” The sources expected that “the Saudi delegation will repeat its country’s position on refusing to engage in the issue of barter, which requires electing Franjieh as president in exchange for Ambassador Nawaf Salam to head the government.” It is noteworthy that the resumption of betting on the French endeavor coincides with an external movement in the direction of the interior that would fill the “lost time” through the “Paris-2” meeting that is being prepared for, and in light of the talk about a visit that US Assistant Secretary of State Barbara Leaf will make to Lebanon this week. Next, as part of her tour to the countries of the region, including Egypt, Jordan and Tunisia.
