Hizbullah gets veto power in Lebanese national unity Cabinet
By JERUSALEM POST STAFF
Lebanon's prime minister has formed a national unity Cabinet in which Hizbullah and its allies have veto power over government decisions.
Prime Minister Fuad Saniora had been struggling to form a government since former army chief Gen. Michel Suleiman was elected president in May.
Saniora announced the Cabinet formation Friday in Beirut.
Hizbullah's veto power was part of an Arab League-brokered deal to achieve compromise between the US and Western-backed parliamentary majority and Hizbullah-led opposition.
