REPORT NO. 16

Classified by: Marco A. Sims for reason 1.4 (b) AND (d)

-------------- --------------
DOHA PARTIES TO ADDRESS ELECTORAL LAW, UNITY CABINET
-------------- --------------

1. (SBU) Embassy Beirut reports the parties agreed to
form one committee to address the electoral law and
another to address the formation of a national unity
cabinet in the opening session. The Hizballah-led
opposition has not yet agreed to address the question of
Hizballah's weapons. March 14 and opposition contacts
agree that a compromise is near on the electoral law, but
not on a unity government or Hizballah's weapons. Embassy
Beirut reports that in the absence of the party leaders,
Lebanon is very quiet. (Ops/Embassy Beirut telcon and e-
mail)

--------------
AIRPORT OPERATIONS RETURNING TO NORMAL
--------------

2. (S) Beirut International Airport continues to add
flights and carriers, but Embassy Beirut will not begin
using the airport again until all of its reverse tripwires
are met on a sustained basis. (Ops/Embassy Beirut telcon,
Beirut 709)

3. (U) Minimize considered.
