Geagea: We Back Demarcation of Maritime Borders Away from Exploitation of Regional Events

Lebanese Forces leader Samir Geagea voiced on Monday his support for the government’s efforts to demarcate the maritime borders.

He pointed out however that “demanding this right is one thing, while exploiting this issue for greater regional interests is another.”

On other local developments, he said: “If there was an intention to resume dialogue, Hizbullah should take the initiative and called for it as the only pending issue left on the dialogue table is its possession of arms.”

“We only have one weapon in confronting challenges and that is dialogue and other democratic methods,” he stressed.

“The other camp is trying to waste time in order to reach outcomes that are better than the ones it has achieved,” he noted.

“Don’t expect us to respond to a call for dialogue that in reality is no more than a distraction,” Geagea stated.
