Report: Amal to join Salam's govt. but Hezbollah won't
Contacts intensified over the past hours, through mediators between Baabda and Ain el-Tineh, in order to contain the dismay of Hezbollah and Speaker Nabih Berri, the Nidaa al-Watan newspaper reported on Friday.
“Baabda is betting on a breakthrough in the meeting between (PM-designate Nawaf) Salam and Berri today (Friday),” the daily added.
“Berri will inform Salam that he agrees to take part in the government whereas Hezbollah will not join it and the Shiite share will go to the Amal Movement,” Nidaa al-Watan said.
“The share will be reportedly five ministers in a 30-minister line-up,” the newspaper added.
