BEIRUT: Lebanon’s upcoming elections were among other topics discussed Thursday evening between Lebanese Forces leader Samir Geagea and U.S. Ambassador to Lebanon Maura Connelly, an LF source told The Daily Star Friday.

According to the source, who spoke on condition of anonymity, both sides stressed the need to hold the elections on time.

Rival Lebanese political sides have yet to agree on a new electoral law for the upcoming polls, due in early June.
