Kanaan Calls for Organizing Christian Ties, Says Aoun-Geagea Talks Soon
إقرأ هذا الخبر بالعربية
Change and Reform bloc MP Ibrahim Kanaan stressed on Friday the importance of organizing the ties between Christians.
Kanaan, who is loyal to Free Patriotic Movement leader MP Michel Aoun, said in comments to Voice of Lebanon radio (100.5) that “any presidential breakthrough would resolve several political disputes.”
The lawmaker is reportedly holding talks with the media officer at the Lebanese Forces, Melhem Riachi, to prepare for the agenda of the dialogue between Aoun and LF chief Samir Geagea.
“The meeting between Aoun and Geagea will be held soon,” Kanaan said, citing progress in talks to prepare for the dialogue between the two Christian leaders.
He described the general atmosphere as “positive.”
Both Aoun and Geagea have announced their candidacies for the presidency. Their differences, in addition to the rivalry between the March 8 and 14 alliances, have left the presidential post vacant.
President Michel Suleiman's term ended in May.

Another guy is well known for high corruption and cheating openly with the lands in Haret Sakhr, him and his family. Is there a justice to put him in jail?

Exactly, his land in Haret Sakhr is one of many land encroachments. Stupid little Flamey, so blind...

Looooooooool I wasn't back paddling. Are you really trying to say that encroaching on someone's land isn't stealing (especially with the vague laws in Lebanon)??????? Are you serious??

This guy, Kenaan is supposed to be a lawyer, someone who knows better, an adult. And yet, he has been the greatest apologist for the obstructionist Aoun and his party. A person schooled in the law, logic and reason, should know better and act better and the only rational logical explanation for why he does not is the most obvious. He is paid and paid well to ignore logic, reason and the law in order to insure his continued flow of income. After all, he is a lawyer by trade.
