MP Simon Abi Ramia confirmed, in an interview with ‘OTV’ Channel today, that ‘the tour of the French envoy, Jean-Yves Le Drian, was exploratory, and he will return for a second round in July, either with a course that includes a comprehensive candidate’s name for the solution, or similar to Doha, working on meetings for a rescue plan and an interim agreement, with the commitment of all forces to this plan.” He added, “I believe that there will not be a new electoral session that does not produce a president, and everyone will wait for Le Drian’s return, and we will be the arbiter of a negotiating dialogue track between the parliamentary blocs and a serious search to determine a final, productive electoral round.” Abi Ramia considered that “the decision in the presidential file is still Lebanese, despite the regional and international influences.”
