Sfeir: We Are at a Dangerous Crossroads
Maronite Patriarch Nasrallah Sfeir has reportedly told former Cabinet Minister Wadih al-Khazen that the situation in Lebanon is at a dangerous crossroads.
“We are at a dangerous crossroads,” Khazen quoted Sfeir as telling him.
Khazen, who is the head of the General Maronite Council, told reporters in Bkirki that differences among politicians would destroy coexistence.
He said he agreed with Sfeir on the need to unify ranks and confront this delicate stage in Lebanon’s history.
“Lebanon has previously faced dangers of strife and its coexistence has been targeted. However, it hasn’t faced dangers of sedition stronger than the current strife that has regional ramifications,” Khazen added.
