BEIRUT - Lebanon's President Michel Aoun on Wednesday said parliament will meet on October 15 to begin consultations to form a new government.
Lebanon's government resigned on August 10 in the wake of a devastating blast that killed nearly 200 people and wrecked swathes of the capital, Beirut. Mustapha Adib, initially tasked with forming a new cabinet, quit late last month, amid bickering over ministerial posts.
