The upcoming week opens with renewed attempts to revive the lost political life in Lebanon, aiming to invigorate the dry political veins, potentially leading to breakthroughs in the stalled files. Meanwhile, ominous clouds of war are gathering in the Lebanese horizon, as responsible parties warn of clear Israeli intentions to deliberately expand the conflict zone in the region and ignite a war front with Lebanon, as reported by "Al-Jomhouria."
The Quintet will visit Lebanon, with a significant event scheduled for tomorrow, marked by a notable presence of the Quintet committee regarding the presidential file in Beirut, aiming to advance this issue. Positive signals through diplomatic channels regarding effective movement from the committee have emerged, linked to the urgent discussions held by its representatives in the capitals of the committee's countries, which have necessitated a swift resolution to the presidential file in Lebanon. This would culminate in the recent series of meetings between ambassadors of the Quintet countries in Lebanon, with direct engagement beginning tomorrow, as the ambassadors are set to meet with the Speaker of the House, Nabih Berri.
Sources accompanying this renewed movement confirmed to "Al-Jomhouria" that the direction in which the Quintet committee is moving is based on an essential issue: separating the presidential file in Lebanon from other ongoing concerns, emphasizing the urgent need for Lebanon to restore political order in tandem with the rapid developments across the region. It was noted that the movement of the Quintet ambassadors is a continuation of intensified communications in recent times between the capitals of the committee's countries, particularly Paris, Riyadh, Doha, and Cairo. This initiative may also involve other officials and representatives from political components, serving as a preliminary step for the upcoming visit of the committee's French intermediary, Jean-Yves Le Drian, to Beirut in the coming two weeks.
