Al-Rahi Meets Suleiman, Calls for Speeding up Govt. Formation

W300

Maronite Patriarch Beshara al-Rahi urged on Sunday the political leaders in Lebanon to speed up the government formation process.

He said in his Sunday sermon: “We hope they would immediately help the country out of the crisis through the formation of a Cabinet that would only work towards bolstering the dignity of the Lebanese people.”

“We call on them to find the appropriate solution that would enable the country’s higher authorities to take decisions that would save Lebanon at times when its constitutional institutions are crippled,” he added.

The patriarch had earlier met with President Michel Suleiman at the latter’s Amchit residence.

The two sides discussed the latest developments in Lebanon, with Suleiman praising the journalists and media’s effort to deliver the news to the people.

We know now the clear position of his Béatitude Patriarch AL RAÏ about the Lebanese politics and Taef , and especially , about the Maronite political leadership ..
The Patriarch + the President , have " today " the same demands as GMA , the amendments of Taef accords in favor of the Presidency , to give the President back some of his Prérogatives " stolen " in Taef KSA .. with the agreement and the blessing of ex Patriarch Sfeir and Samir Geagea ...

But LeP, Hassan is against amending the taef he said so on TV last week and what he says Aoun will also say sooner or later like the nice little ventriloquist dummy that he is. or the HA tool as his Béatitude Patriarch AL RAÏ called him.
