Lebanese political leaders on Tuesday adjourned the latest round of reconciliation talks, still unable to find a consensus on the future of pro-Syrian President Emile Lahoud. According to AFP, the leaders, following four hours of talks, set the next round of negotiations for June 8 to continue discussions on disarming Hizbullah.
"Participants did not reach an agreement on the presidency, so they moved on to the remaining item on the table: the strategic defense policy" against potential Israeli dangers on Lebanon, stated speaker Nabih Berri.
"When we fail in a subject, we said that we will come out and say it. We are not ashamed of it," said Berri, referring to the discussions on the fate of Lahoud.
