On this front, Jumblat brought the safety issue up by reminding all the Lebanese "to hold on to the international decisions especially the UN resolution 1701. That's why it is better not to participate in the biddings turmoil especially that the international community couldn't till now convince Israel of withdrawing from the Lebanese village of al-ghajar," Jumblat added.
Regarding privatization, Jumblat insisted that the government should stick to its social role by forming a ministry for the Palestinian refugees that takes care of their human and social affairs. "It has to be kept, however, from being manipulated by launching settlement slogans as part of cheap political strategies," he warned.
On the region, Jumblat emphasized on the important role that the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and its independence play amongst the Arabs. He voiced a bold dialogue request to take place between the Arab countries and Iran.
