Mansour mulls Syria complaint BEIRUT: Caretaker Foreign Minister Adnan Mansour is still mulling over a request by President Michel Sleiman to file complaints to the Arab League and the United Nations over Syrian violations of Lebanese territories, political sources told The Daily Star Friday.

The source said Mansour held extensive talks with Sleiman’s adviser for diplomatic affairs, Naji Abi Assi, over the issue of the complaints.
