Al-Rahi: We Cannot Accept Crippling of Political Life

Maronite Patriarch Beshara al-Rahi criticized on Sunday the political disputes in Lebanon that have crippled the country on the social and economic levels.

He said during his Sunday sermon: “We cannot accept the crippling of political life and its consequences on other fields in Lebanon.”

“All disputes must be overcome,” he demanded.

“We should not obstruct the functioning of constitutional institutions every time a dispute erupts,” the patriarch stressed.

“The Christians must also maintain their message in the East and in Lebanon,” al-Rahi declared.
