Hasbani Says Decision to Visit Syria Up to Aoun but Govt. would Debate It

إقرأ هذا الخبر بالعربية W460

Deputy PM and Health Minister Ghassan Hasbani noted Monday that it is up to President Michel Aoun to decide whether or not to visit Damascus, while pointing out that the Cabinet would debate the thorny issue.

“The appropriate circumstances for such a visit would be discussed in Cabinet,” Hasbani said in an interview with BBC.

The issue would also depend on the Cabinet's readiness and political stability in any given country, the deputy premier added.

Asked about the Lebanese Forces' stance on such a visit, Hasbani said: “The LF's stance would then be announced in Cabinet, seeing as the party is represented in the government with three ministers, and of course we will take the circumstances into consideration.”

Aoun arrived Monday in Saudi Arabia on his first foreign trip since taking office, starting an Arab tour that will also take him to Qatar and Egypt.

I have all the respect in the world for the Lebanese Forces and their Deputy Prime Minister Mr. Ghassan Hasbani for noting on Monday that it is up to General Aoun who is now president to decide whether to visit Syria even though Syria and its regime imprisoned Dactor Geagea for life.

I have the utmost respect for Christian values but unfortunately, the majority of the so called Christians on this forum do not practice.
