Beirut: The militant Hezbollah group says Damascus is ready meet one of Syria's harshest critics in Lebanon to open a new page in relations.
A reconciliation between Walid Junblatt, leader of Lebanon's Druse sect, and Damascus could boost Syria's role in Lebanese politics years after its troops were forced out of the country.
Lebanon's Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah has been mediating between the Syrians and Junblatt for several months.
A Hezbollah statement released late Monday said Nasrallah informed Junblatt that Syria "will overcome" what happened in the past and open a new page.
It added that Syrian President Bashar Al Assad will receive Junblatt in the near future.
