Here are the main points of the new Lebanese political agreement. The factions agree to:

• Convene parliament to elect Army chief Gen. Michel Suleiman as Lebanese president.
  
  
• Form a 30-member national unity cabinet including the ruling coalition and the opposition. The opposition will have veto power over major decisions.
  
  
• Scrap the current electoral law and adopt legislation that divides country into smaller districts in an effort to better represent various sects.
  
  
• Not use weapons or violence to achieve political gains.
  
  
• After the election of a president and the formation of cabinet, launch a dialogue, overseen by the president, on boosting state authority over the entire country and outlining the relationship between the state and various armed organizations to guarantee security.
  
  
• Refrain from political, religious and sectarian incitement.
