Druze leader Walid Jumblat said that the obstacles facing formation of the new cabinet were not political, adding that there is consensus around the values of the Doha agreement.

"But bringing everybody to the cabinet table is not any easy task," Jumblat said in remarks published by the daily As Safir on Thursday.

Jumblat hinted that "regional tensions still exist," but added that they "don't create obstacles in the face of implementation of the terms of the Doha accord, "particularly since everybody – inside and outside (Lebanon) – are tired of the crisis in Lebanon."

He said security remains the "real worry."

"It (security) exhausts not only the people, but the Lebanese army," he added.

In separate remarks to the daily Al Mustaqbal, Jumblat said the political vacuum is serious.

"Any vacuum could be used in a critical manner," he said.
