Bassil Urges Vatican to Revive Christians Role in Lebanon

Free Patriotic Movement chief Jebran Bassil tweeted on Thursday about the importance of the Vatican’s support for the role of Christians in Lebanon.

"The presence of Christians in Lebanon is linked to their role,” the FPM chief said.

“If their role disappears, their presence will too. If the Vatican doesn’t take this into consideration, a severe damage will occur, the least of which is Christians’ complete emigration,” Bassil added.

“The role of the Vatican is pivotal and moral,” Bassil stated. “Christians don‎’t need to have their presence imposed, but rather their role to be recognized. The Holy See is able to reinforce their strength, so they can rest assured about their tomorrow."
