The Third Meeting of the Lebanese National Dialogue Committee (1975)

About

The third meeting of the Lebanese National Dialogue Committee was convened on 2 October 1975, bringing together representatives of the rival Lebanese factions with Prime Minister Rashid Karami. During the meeting, two of Lebanon’s most prominent political figures, including former Prime Minister Saeb Salam, called upon President Suleiman Frangieh to resign. Raymond Eddé, leader of the National Bloc, likewise called for the president’s resignation. Eddé recalled that Egyptian President Gamal Abdel Nasser had resigned following Israel’s decisive victory in the 1967 war, and proposed that President Frangieh should likewise step down after his failure to contain the sectarian violence in Lebanon, which had brought the country to the brink of civil war. Both Salam and Eddé declared that they were reconsidering their positions as members of the twenty-member National Dialogue Committee, a body that had been established in Beirut one week prior to the meeting.
