The two leaders arrived together from Damascus and met Lebanese President Michel Sleiman and other officials to address tensions over reports of an impending indictment against members of the militant party Hezbollah for Hariri’s murder.
The discussions were also expected to touch on the overall Middle East situation.
Assad and Sleiman also met separately for about 20 minutes.
