Geagea Blames Hizbullah for Lebanon's Status Quo
Lebanese Forces chief Samir Geagea blamed Hizbullah on Friday for the country's situation and assured that efforts are ongoing to get out of this situation.
“The status-quo that we are witnessing will prolong because Hizbullah has other regional interests that it believes are more important that Lebanon,” said Geagea.
“Lebanon's economy and development are the least of Hizbullah's concern. It only cares about the Umma from its own perspective where the Iranian Republic is at its core. It only carries out what suits it even if it means sending our youth to die in Syria and Yemen,” added the LF chief.
“If the Umma sees it better to attack Saudi Arabia, the party carries that out knowing that the Kingdom has never done anything detrimental to Lebanon,” he emphasized.
“We are working day and night in order to get out of this situation. We made a substantial step when we reconciled with the Free Patriotic Movement and we will try to follow with more steps to come.”
On the municipal elections, Geagea stressed that a municipal chief must be “young and motivated and in constant search for budgets to carry out developmental projects.”
