No one can be sovereign and claim to love his country while criticizing the army and security forces that work to maintain security and stability and extend the state's authority, which includes restricting weapons to its hands and achieving security and securing the economic and social affairs of our people in the south.
What Lebanon has suffered and continues to suffer from waves of displaced people who came to its territory, the latest of whom are those displaced from Syria whom Lebanon hosted since the beginning of events in 2011, and whom Lebanon is currently working to return to their country after the reasons for their displacement ended following the political changes that occurred in Syria.
Israel has not committed to the agreement reached in the negotiations in Washington, and it continues its attacks on southern villages and towns with shelling, destruction, and bulldozing of homes.
Lebanon wishes that the international forces operating in the south (UNIFIL) complete their operational mission during the next year set for their withdrawal under the Security Council resolution, given the importance of their presence in the south for monitoring what is happening on the one hand, and for assisting the Lebanese Army when it deploys up to the international southern border after Israel's withdrawal on the other.
A stable state is built on centralizing weapons in the hands of its army, and our responsibility requires restoring consideration to production. Tripoli, with its energies and competencies, can be a key partner in Lebanon's renaissance if vision and management are available. There is no development without an effective state, and the state is not the property of a faction, sect, or team but belongs to all Lebanese and their shared reference.
Experience has proven that division protects no one and weakening the state protects no component.
