'The MP clarified to his U.S. interlocutors the importance of domestic dialogue to resolve this issue according to the president's proposal, noting that this dialogue had recently started in meetings between the head of the Loyalty to Resistance bloc MP Mohammad Raad and former Information Ministry director general Mohammad Obeid, who is close to Aoun,' political sources told al-Akhbar newspaper. 'There is U.S. leniency and a greater understanding in Washington of Baabda's viewpoint and that might be behind the decision to remove U.S. Deputy Special Envoy for the Middle East Morgan Ortagus from her post,' the sources added.
