'Lebanon:
National dialogue in Doha'
by Moussa Bashir
Lebanese parliamentarians, ministers, and opposing political leaders are
currently holding talks in Doha,
Qatar. This
national dialogue came at the end of violent clashes between opposition and
pro–government groups two weeks ago. The talks are taking place since Saturday
in an attempt to reach an agreement on the national unity government, the
election law and to finally elect a consensus president. Following are some
bloggers reactions on the dialogue.
There is a general sarcastic tone in most blog posts when describing the talks.
This reflects the general mood in the country.
