Aoun urges parties to 'rise above petty issues' so govt. can be formed

President Joseph Aoun said Wednesday that “the first positive sign that should be shown to the world is the formation of a government as soon as possible, instead of obstructing formation over narrow sectarian and political interests.”

“We should not waste the chances that are before us but must rather rise above all petty issues so that the government can be formed and work can begin,” Aoun said during a meeting with a delegation from the Constitutional Council.

“The most important goal from speeding up the government’s formation would be expediting the reconstruction of the regions that were affected by the last war,” Aoun added.
