Speaker Nabih Berri’s advisor, MP Ali Hassan Khalil, stressed on Monday the need to adopt political rhetoric that would be capable of confronting the sectarian mentality in Lebanon “because sectarianism is complicating the lives of the people.”

He said: “The sectarian system is backwards, forcing the people to lead a political life of backwardness.”

“Any government lineup that advocates backwardness will undoubtedly weaken the state,” he noted.

“Protecting the nation and the safety of its people cannot be achieved in the current division witnessed in Lebanon,” he continued.

Khalil added: “Only national unity can fortify the country against the Israeli agenda.”

Explaining Berri’s proposal to form a wide national front in Lebanon, the MP said: “He meant that this front would break all barriers between the political powers and eliminate the divisions among the Lebanese.”

“The new majority represents political unity and we want it to harbor other powers that share its national principles and political stands,” he noted.

Addressing the government formation process, Khalil stated: “The delay is no longer acceptable and we call for the formation of a salvation government that would be charged with reviewing the national rhetoric in Lebanon and restarting the national dialogue.”

Regarding the public property construction violations, he remarked: “Some sides want to portray our people as outlaws.”
