BEIRUT, LEBANON (11:20 P.M.) - Lebanese Prime Minister Saad Hariri reportedly told his political party this week that he refuses to visit Syria and meet with Syrian President Bashar Al-Assad.
Citing Hariri's speech to the Future Movement on Tuesday, the Middle East Monitor reported that the Lebanese premier refuses to travel to Syria and meet with Assad, despite the fact it may cost him his job.
“It is impossible that I visit Syria, not now and not in the future… and if Lebanon’s interest requires so, then you could find someone else," Hariri reportedly stated.
Hariri has been a long-time supporter of the Syrian opposition and has often been outspoken about his desire to see Assad removed from power.
