TOULON, France, Aug 9, SPA -- French President JacquesChirac said on Wednesday he believed US objections could beovercome to amendments proposed by the Lebanese government andthe Arab League to a draft U.N. resolution on Lebanon, REUTERS REPORTED. "It does seem that there is an American reservation aboutadopting this draft," Chirac told reporters after a meeting withmembers of his cabinet in the south of France. "I can't imagine that there would be no solution becausethat would mean, which would be the most immoral result, that weaccept the current situation and that we abandon an immediateceasefire," he said. "I can't imagine that of the Americans oranyone else." The comments came as diplomats work on revisions to a Frenchand U.S.-backed United Nations resolution to end the war. The Lebanese government, backed by the Arab League, hasrejected the draft U.N. proposal that called for full cessationof hostilities but did not demand an immediate withdrawal ofIsraeli forces from the country. "I think it's normal that we should take into considerationsolutions envisaged in particular by parties to the conflict,"Chirac said. "We have to take account of them." He said that the original French and U.S.-backed draft was a"working base" and that France had requested that it shouldincorporate "a certain number" of proposals put forward by theArab League. "If we don't manage it, there will obviously be a debate inthe Security Council and everyone will present their positionclearly, including of course France," he said. --SPA www.spa.gov.sa/381768
