Gemayel Calls on All Opposition Deputies to Unite in the Next Battle to Defend Lebanon's Sovereignty

Kataeb leader Samy Gemayel called on the security forces and the Beirut municipality to remove all the insulation as the revolutionaries will enter the parliament, inviting all opposition deputies to unite in the next battle to defend Lebanon’s sovereignty.

“We will not set any condition for the unity of an opposition front, except respect for certain principles such as the sovereignty of Lebanon, the refusal of any compromise on the assets of the Lebanese and the demand for decentralization of administration,” Gemayel said during a popular gathering at the Kataeb party’s headquarters in Saifi.

“Who would have said that the heads of the Syrian regime will lose?” he asked.

"Who said nothing would change? A lot of things have changed and Hezbollah and its allies have lost the majority and their ability to ally with each other," he pointed out.

“The Lebanese people are the ones who decided and implemented and this is evidence that the Lebanese people are alive and ready to change the situation, and we have to rely on this matter,” he added.

Gemayel dedicated the elections' success to all the victims of the Beirut port explosion and to the martyrs of the Kataeb Party, especially Bachir Gemayel and Pierre Gemayel, the martyrs of the Cedar Revolution and October 17 revolution.

The gathering was attended by Former President of the Kataeb party Amine Gemayel and his wife Joyce, the elected MPs: Elias Hankache, Nadim Gemayel, Selim Sayegh, as well as Carine Gemayel, Majd Harb, Mona Succar Labaky and members of the Kataeb political bureau.
