BEIRUT, 12 February, 2021 (TON): Saad Hariri, Lebanon’s PM said on Friday, that no progress had been made in talks to form a new government.

This week Hariri dined with his French counterpart, Emanuel Macron who has so far failed in his efforts to unite the Lebanese leaders together to tackle their country’s unprecedented financial crisis.

Hariri told the media after his first meeting with Lebanese President Michel Aoun, that there is no progress in forming the government.  

The government of Lebanon resigned amid growing public anger following the Beirut explosion in August 2020. The economic situation pushed tens of thousands of people into poverty and triggered large anti-government protests.
