Geagea: Things Couldn’t Straighten up as Long as there is No Single State

Lebanese Forces leader Samir Geagea lamented on Monday that the situation in Lebanon wouldn’t improve as long as there isn’t a single state.

“Things couldn’t straighten up in a country where there is no single state,” Geagea said in reference to Hizbullah which the March 14 forces accuse of forming a state within the Lebanese state.

He made his remark after meeting Maronite Patriarch Nasrallah Sfeir in Bkirki.

The LF leader described the situation as “sensitive” and said: “I don’t know if the other team will be able to form the government. But it has become unacceptable for things to continue this way.”

Geagea said the election of a new patriarch following the resignation of Sfeir was the concern of bishops. “We won’t interfere in this issue.”
