U.N. Special Coordinator for Lebanon, Michael Williams said Thursday after meeting Lebanese Forces leader Samir Geagea that the Special Tribunal for Lebanon “may affect Lebanon’s stability.”

He pointed out however that there are other factors that may also target the country’s stability, such as the tensions with Israel, adding: “We are trying to calm the situation and deal with the facts.”

He stressed that “The STL is an independent entity … and we will see what may come of it, but I am not entitled to comment on the measures it may or may not take because I don’t think anyone has any information over them.”
