Grand Jaafari Mufti, Sheikh Ahmad Qabalan, stressed, in a statement on Wednesday, the necessity to hold direct dialogue between the political components and to reach a settlement at both the presidential and governmental levels. "What we need is direct dialogue and a presidential-governmental settlement that puts Lebanon on track of national salvation," said Qabalan. "The fact that the political forces need an international mediator to bring them closer together means that Lebanon is committing suicide," he lamented.
