Premier
Fouad Saniora arrived in Amman Sunday for talks with King Abdullah II
of Jordan on the Lebanon crisis and the strained Beirut-Damascus
relations.

The
state-run National News Agency, in a dispatch from Amman, said the
talks later in the day fall within the framework of Saniora's contacts
with Arab leaders to scout ways of facilitating a settlement to the
ongoing crisis.

The
Saniora mission coincides with a visit by parliament speaker Nabih
Berri, a prominent figure in the Hizbullah-led opposition, to Cairo for
talks with Egyptian President Husni Mubarak.
