Gemayel: We refuse that negotiations be limited to Hezbollah and Israel

Kataeb Party chief MP Sami Gemayel has stressed that “the most important step today would be deactivating the southern front so that we take care of our country, economy, hospitals and education.”

“Once the current war ends, regardless of its results, there should be a frankness session among the Lebanese to think of solutions for all problems, without eliminating anyone or drawing wars,” Gemayel told a Kataeb delegation from Zahle that visited him in Bikfaya.

Addressing the international community, Gemayel said: “We reject that the negotiations be limited to Hezbollah and Israel and to see discussions that satisfy both parties amid the absence of the Lebanese people.”

He added: “Resolution 1701 which prevents dragging Lebanon into war is not sufficient and Resolution 1559 must be simultaneously implemented in order to remove the weapons of militias.”
