Prime Minister Tammam Salam has held a meeting with Western ambassadors, who insisted that they would exert all efforts to prevent a cabinet paralysis, diplomatic sources said on Monday.

The sources told An Nahar and al-Joumhouria newspapers, that the meeting between Salam and the ambassadors of the United States, France and Britain took place on Saturday night.

The sources said that the three diplomats “insisted on stopping the cabinet from entering a vortex of paralysis and encouraged him into exerting more efforts to reactivate the government.”

The ambassadors also promised Salam to make the necessary contacts with the different Lebanese parties to revive the cabinet, they said.

The diplomats warned that any paralysis would harm international assistance to Lebanon, the sources added.
