Parliament Speaker Nabih Berri on Wednesday reiterated his call for the rise of a “civil state” in Lebanon as a solution for the country’s recurring crises.
“The only solution today and in the future is the rise of a civil state,” Berri told lawmakers during the weekly Ain el-Tineh meeting, reminding that he had raised this “solution” years ago at a national dialogue conference.
Turning to the issue of the government, Berri hoped it will be formed as soon as possible, noting that the regional developments have proved his viewpoint that the obstacle is “domestic.”
