Special Coordinator Continues Round of Political Meetings

UN Special Coordinator Joanna Wronecka continued this week her round of meetings with political leaders and parliamentarians in Lebanon ahead of her briefing to the UN Security Council next week. While underlining the urgent need to break the political impasse in Lebanon, the Special Coordinator listened to their views on how to bridge the gaps and promote dialogue towards solutions that serve the interests of Lebanon and the Lebanese people.  She discussed with Lebanese Forces leader Samir Geagea the worrying vacuum and the need to approach challenges with a responsible vision for the country.  With Kataeb party leader Samy Gemayel, the Special Coordinator also had an exchange on the presidential vacuum and the need for a consensual approach to move forward national priorities, including the reform agenda.
