Geagea: Lebanon Facing Struggle between Rule of State and that of Statelet
Lebanese Forces leader Samir Geagea stated on Tuesday that Lebanon is facing a struggle over asserting the role of the state in controlling the country and combating attempts to impose the role of the “statelet” over it.
He said before a delegation of NDU students: “It is a battle between two different points of view, one that calls for the rule of the state institutions and army and the other that does not believe in the state and that opposes the Arab and international communities.”
The March 14-led opposition believes in democracy and freedom, whereas the March 8 camp still adheres to obsolete regimes, he added.
The LF leader urged the students to make the choice between the ideology of the state and that of the “statelet”.
They should also chose between the rule of force and that of the law and between the state that respects international agreements and one that wants to wage a confrontation with the international community, Geagea stressed.
