Expert: Lebanese President On 'A Balancing Act'

Bilal Saab, a Lebanon expert at the Brookings Institution, explains that the Lebanese president is faced with a 'balancing act' as he should try to satisfy two opposing groups. Indeed, the radical Hezbollah party does not trust the President for his Western inclinations whilst the March 14th coalition of anti-Syrians believes the President is too lenient with the Syrians. As a result, the President might not be granted additional powers. (0:41)
