The Presidency's Press Office issued the following statement:

"Annahar website published today what it claimed was, "A report of the last meeting" between President Michel Aoun and Prime Minister-designate Saad Hariri, quoting "political sources.""

The Presidency's Press Office confirms that the words attributed to the President of the Republic are baseless and false, aiming to create confusion in public opinion and distorting reality, especially since attendance at this meeting was limited to  President Aoun and PM Hariri only.
