Engineer Samir Khatib announced on Sunday from Bayt al-Wasat his withdrawal from the premiership’s race “with a clear conscience.”
After meeting with resigned Prime Minister Saad Hariri, Khatib thanked President Michel Aoun, Speaker Nabih Berri, Hariri and all political leaderships that granted his their confidence.
He also noted that he was subject to an unjust campaign from some sides.
