FILE -- In this May 28, 2014 file photo, Walid Jumblatt, the political leader of Lebanon's minority Druse sect, pets his dog Oscar as he speaks during an interview with The Associated Press at his garden house in Beirut, Lebanon. Joumblatt announced the death of his long time dog Oscar who was seen next to him most of the time in a tweet in Arabic that read "good bye best friend, good bye most valuable comrade. Good bye my beloved Oscar." Joumblatt made the announcement an hour before he met U.S. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo on Friday, March 22, 2019 at the U.S. ambassador's residence near Beirut.
