Geagea Describes March 13 Rally as ‘Decisive Moment’

Lebanese Forces leader Samir Geagea on Friday noted that “the importance of the March 13 rally lies in raising the issue of weapons without any fears.”

“The situations in Lebanon won’t improve without resolving this dilemma, that’s why that day will represent a decisive moment,” Geagea said on the eve of an expected mass rally at the Martyrs Square to commemorate the March 14 anniversary.

Geagea said that should the Hizbullah-led camp “make steps such as annulling the cooperation protocols signed with the Special Tribunal for Lebanon, then definitely new demonstrations will follow after Sunday’s rally.”

“Stop underestimating the Lebanese army’s role, no one can defend Lebanon better than the Lebanese State,” the LF leader stressed.

“The real problem is Hizbullah’s arms, so when we solve it the problem of Syrian intervention will also be solved,” Geagea added in an interview on MTV.

“We want to restore normalcy in Lebanon,” he said of his camp’s vision.

“We share a common vision for solving the problem, we have entered the second phase of our struggle through which we want to get rid of the abnormal situation and those who would like to restore normalcy must take part in the March 13 rally in Martyrs Square.”

Addressing March 14 supporters, Geagea said it was “not enough to complain about the current situation.”

“You should take part in diagnosing and solving the problem.”
