March 14: We Will Firmly Confront Any Attempt to Escape International Commitments

The March 14 General Secretariat stated on Wednesday that the ongoing talks, “led by the Syria and Hizbullah,” to draft a government policy statement are aimed at breaking Lebanon’s commitment with the Special Tribunal for Lebanon.

It said in a statement after its weekly meeting: “The March 14 camp stresses that it will firmly confront any attempt to escape Lebanon’s international commitments.”

Addressing Hizbullah chief Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah’s recent announcement that the party had uncovered two spies within its ranks working for the CIA, the statement questioned the Justice Minister’s failure to tackle this issue.

It said that the state judiciary should handle the affair, and not allow it to remain in the hands of “the judiciary of a statelet.”

The March 14 General Secretariat reiterated its determination to confront the government, “which is aimed at taking Lebanon several steps back, through a political-popular democratic opposition.”
