Gemayel Says Kataeb Party Seeking to Defend a Cause, Not to Win Posts

Kataeb leader Samy Gemayel on Monday said that the party had repeatedly warned of everything Lebanon is facing today, voicing unwavering commitment to serving the country's best interest.

"To us, national activism is an act of faith. We are believers and fighters, not political traders whose existence is a mere chance," Gemayel said during the inauguration of the Students and Youth Department's new headquarters in Mar Mikhael.

"We are not seeking posts. We are entrusted with a cause, the sacrifices of our martyrs and the fate of a country."

The inauguration was attended by the Kataeb's Secretary-General Nazar Najarian, head of the Students and Youth Department Zakhia Achkar, as well as the heads and members of the department's executive committee.
