Qobeissi: Dialogue Necessary for Convergence as the Taef Was for Ending War

AMAL MP Hani Qobeissi stressed on Monday that the table of dialogue is essential for Lebanese politicians to gather and discuss the country’s problems, just like the Taef Accord was to end Lebanon’s civil war, the National News Agency reported on Monday.

“The table of dialogue is necessary for us to come together, as the Taef Accord was necessary for Lebanon to get out of civil war,” said Qobeissi.

“We can only prevent sedition through the language of national dialogue. In this country no party is capable of imposing anything on another. Let us agree together to get Lebanon out of the deadly vacuum at the presidential level, at the hampered government level and a parliament that does not convene,” added the AMAL MP.

“The country can't continue this way. There is a possibility to find solutions for our political crises through the table of dialogue,” he pointed out.

“We have to agree on a president, a government and on an electoral law that protects Lebanon and all the factions and parties,” he concluded.
