Former Prime Minister Fuad Saniora said that the roots of Lebanon’s crises can be traced to differences over how to govern the country.
In remarks to Asharq Al-Awsat, he said that the country was split between supporters of the Saudi-sponsored Taef Accord and others who advocate the use of force.
“Developing Lebanon’ system of rule cannot take place under the threat of arms,” he stressed.
Moreover, he said Lebanon “should not be bound to foreign powers or weapons that are imposed on the people.”
Saniora had declared an initiative on coexistence, the constitution and national salvation based on the implementation of the Taef Accord.
