Jumblat: Upcoming Developments More Important than Futile Debates

Progressive Socialist Party leader Walid Jumblat on Sunday urged his party's members and supporters to avoid verbal clashes with rival parties, warning that “the country's problems and the upcoming developments are more important.”

“Whatever the political problems may be, I urge party members and supporters not to lose nerve and engage in exchanges of tirades regardless of any remarks against us as a party or against me as a person,” Jumblat tweeted.

“The country's problems and the upcoming developments are more important than futile debates that create tensions. This approach blocks the rhetoric of objective dialogue over unemployment, waste management, electricity and other issues,” Jumblat added.
