Series of March 14 Meetings to Confront Cabinet

March 14 general-secretariat coordinator Fares Soaid stressed on Saturday that the coalition will be a peaceful and democratic and at times a popular opposition.

“We don’t have the capability to create tension but we will be present in every square and conference to prevent an armed party from laying its hand on Lebanon,” Soaid told LBC TV network in reference to Hizbullah.

Opposition sources said in remarks published on Saturday that March 14 leaderships are holding a series of talks as part of the emergency committee that was formed at the Bristol Hotel meeting in Beirut on Sunday to follow-up on all developments and take the appropriate decisions.

The leaders are pondering ways to confront the cabinet either through constitutional institutions (a shadow government) or the organization of strikes and syndicate sit-ins, the sources added.

During the Bristol meeting, the March 14 forces asked Premier Najib Miqati to clearly announce his commitment to the Special Tribunal for Lebanon or quit.
