Relentless French Demands for Positive Syrian Role in Lebanon
France has reiterated that Syria must play a positive role in Lebanon by facilitating the election of a new president.
"Just like Solana, our position has not changed. We believe that Syria, as the rest of the parties concerned, must exercise a positive role in Lebanon to allow the election of a president, as stipulated by the Arab initiative," French Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Pascale Andreani said Monday.
EU foreign policy chief Javier Solana called Sunday for international pressure on Syria so that it allows Lebanon to elect a new head of state before an Arab summit on March 29-30.
"The pressure on Syria has to grow in order to solve at least the situation in Lebanon," he said at the Brussels Forum conference in the Belgian capital.
