Thamer al-Sabhan and Saad Hariri take a picture after their meeting.

:: Saudi Arabia’s Minister of State for Gulf Affairs Thamer al-Sabhan has met with Lebanese Prime Minister Saad Hariri on Tuesday in which several topics of mutual interests were discussed.

“A lengthy and fruitful meeting with our brother, Prime Minister Saad Hariri, where we agreed on many things of interest to the Lebanese people. God Willing that what comes next is for the better,” Sabhan tweeted on Tuesday.

Tuesday’s discussion came just two months after both met when Sabhan confirmed that the efforts of the Lebanese military prove that only legitimate institutions can protect the state.

“Nationalism, not sectarianism, is what builds nations,” Sabhan tweeted at the time.
