Gemayel proposes amending constitution to include Lebanon's neutrality
Kataeb leader Sami Gemayel said Monday that he had submitted a proposal to introduce Lebanon's neutrality into the Lebanese constitution.
In a press conference, Gemayel said that Lebanon has an opportunity today to "turn the page", adding that neutrality does not mean not taking positions on issues of justice in the world but it means that Lebanon would not militarily participate in any regional conflicts.
Earlier on Monday, Gemayel told al-Jadeed TV channel that Hezbollah's weapons were incapable of protecting Lebanon and that the group has disastrously failed, leading to destruction and suffering. "Our goal is to protect everyone," he said.
