Beirut, Lebanon : Lebanon’s state-run National News Agency says the parliament will meet Sunday to elect army Chief Gen. Michel Suleiman as the country’s president.
The report says Parliament Speaker Nabih Berri had initially called the parliament session for Thursday, a day after the Lebanese factions reached a breakthrough agreement in Qatar to end the country’s 18-month political crisis.
But NNA says the session has been postponed until Sunday because Arab and foreign delegations expected to attend would not be able to arrive in Beirut on such short notice.
