Geagea Says LF Winning Elections Will 'Improve Exchange Rate'
Lebanese Forces chief Samir Geagea said Tuesday that if his party wins the elections, “there will be an instant improvement in the economic sector and the currency exchange rate,” as he claimed that his party has the best economic plan.
Geagea also named former deputy PM and health minister Ghassan Hasbani as a candidate for the Greek Orthodox seat in Beirut’s first electoral district, urging Beirutis to vote for the party that will “rescue” Lebanon from “the hell we have been dragged into by the Free Patriotic movement and Hizbullah.”
“Change is possible,” Geagea said, adding that people must choose well and give their votes to “the party that has the power and the readiness to confront and change.”
The LF chief also said that Judge Tarek Bitar on his own has faced Hizbullah for six months, wondering what Hizbullah would do if they were confronted by a president, a government, a minister and a majority. “Would they assault all the Lebanese?” Geagea asked.
