Justice Minister Adel Nassar on Friday voiced strong support for the government’s recent decision to consolidate all weapons under the authority of the State, saying the move marks a crucial step toward restoring full sovereignty and equality under the law.

“The process of placing all weapons under official state authority has been set in motion within a defined timeline," Nassar wrote in a post on his official X account.

He framed the disarmament effort as a unifying national endeavor, not a partisan battle.

“Statehood is a project for all Lebanese, not one group against another!” Nassar wrote.

Reaffirming the principle of equal citizenship, he added: “Lebanon comes first. Lebanon belongs to all its people, equal under the rule of law and the Constitution.”
