NNA - Foreign and Expatriates Minister, Adnan Mansour, contacted by phone Thursday evening his Syrian counterpart, Walid al-Mouallem, where he was informed about the latest developments especially with regards to threats against Syria.
Both agreed on the continuation of contacts between them.
In response to a question about threats against Syria, Minister Mansour said "Such a dangerous situation necessitates the holding of an urgent meeting of the Council of Ministers... or at the minimum a mini ministerial meeting to consider the risks against Syria and the potential threats of a military strike against it, besides the direct repercussions of such a strike on Lebanon."
Mansour said that the holding of such a meeting can enable Lebanon to confront the repercussions of such a strike or limit its implications.
