Free Patriotic Movement leader MP Michel Aoun stressed on Saturday that corruption should not be the norm in forming a new government in Lebanon.
He said during an FPM dinner in the Chouf region: “The state cannot be built without security, a fair judiciary, and adequate finances.”
“The state treasury cannot be guarded by someone who steals the people’s taxes,” he noted.
“We vow that we will complete the plan of change and reform and those who deserve it will be appointed to their rightful positions,” the MP added.
“We want a fair state … and all who have robbed the country and led us to this poor condition will be held accountable,” Aoun declared.
“No one can label us as spiteful. We are not spiteful, but just,” stressed the FPM leader.
