Kataeb Party chief Amin Gemayel stressed on Thursday that Lebanon's salvation relies on the will of the Lebanese to coexist and live freely.

“Lebanon has passed through tough conditions and the (political) movement has no basis without the will of the Lebanese to fortify the country,” Gemayel said in comments published in the Kuwaiti newspaper al-Seyassah.

He pointed out that Lebanon's salvation will never be due to foreign interventions, which will lead to nowhere without the support of the Lebanese and their efforts to resolve the crises gripping the country.

“Lebanon relies on the will of its people to salvage the country and rebuild it better than it was,” the Kataeb leader said.

He expressed trust in the future of the country that “faced all challenges and storms and survived... We have no fear.”

Lebanon has been without a head of state, since President Michel Suleiman's six-year term ended in May, over differences between the March 8 and 14 alliances.
