إقرأ هذا الخبر بالعربية
The head of the Democratic Renewal Movement form MP Nassib Lahoud stressed on Tuesday the movement’s objectivity towards various political powers in Lebanon, saying that it will not take sides with the March 8 or 14 camps.
He added however that it will “not maintain a neutral position on the current challenges” facing Lebanon.
He made his statements while heading the movement’s weekly meeting, the first he has headed since returning from abroad.
“We will defend the Special Tribunal for Lebanon, which is aimed at achieving justice and putting an end to political assassinations,” Lahoud said.
He also stressed the need to implement United Nations Security Council resolution 1701 to prevent future Israeli attacks against Lebanon.
“The movement is committed to reform, freedom, developing the democratic system, and achieving economic and social development,” Lahoud said.
“We are committed to the Arabs’ right to freedom and human dignity, especially in Syria,” he continued.
The former MP also voiced the movement’s support for the Palestinian people and their right to establish their own state.

This is one of the most level-headed politicians in lebanon today. it's a shame he hasn't been more involved. i heard he had some health issues recently. i'm glad he's back in the game. a true visionary. not a war-lord who's trying to adapt to peaceful politics. we need more people like this in positions of power. the country would be in a much better place.

Yes we welcome you as the next clean president, the problem with politics is that if you do not have the backing of either US or Iran (Players on the ground) then you loose legitimacy because money talks.
Keep up the good work, we want to hear from you often..
