Parliamentary majority leader Saad Hariri's surprise overnight visit to President Michel Suleiman has given cabinet talks a fresh momentum.

Hariri said after the lengthy meeting that he discussed with Suleiman ways to speed up formation of the new cabinet.

"Mustaqbal Movement is willing to facilitate things as much as possible and within reason in order to form the cabinet and ensure a good start for the President," Hariri told reporters at the end of the three-hour meeting which ended around midnight.

Hariri denied there were differences among the ruling majority regarding the distribution of shares in the new cabinet, saying the March 14 alliance favors a speedy formation of the government.

"The Lebanese are fed up of this (cabinet) issue," Hariri went on to say, insisting that the crisis should end soon on the basis of "no victor, no vanquished."

Hariri believed that lack of communication between the pro- and anti-government camps could be the reason why the cabinet line-up continued to face obstacles.

The MP announced he was going to launch fresh contacts, including talks with Aoun, and said so will President Suleiman and Prime Minister-designate Fouad Saniora in an effort to end the cabinet stalemate.
