Aoun: Introducing Change in Syria without Knowledge of New Regime Will Destroy Lebanon
The head of the Free Patriotic Movement MP Michel Aoun announced on Friday that any change in Syria “will destroy Lebanon.”
He warned: “Any change in Syria without knowledge of the country's new ruling regime will destroy us and Lebanon.”
He made his remarks during a dinner for the FPM Metn branch.
“Are Tunisia and Egypt examples of what we are aspiring to?” he asked.
On those supporting the Muslim Brotherhood that took power in Egypt, Aoun wondered: “Do they know their agenda?”
“We cannot accept the United States' statements, but we choose our freedom. The Americans have told the French that Lebanon is an historic mistake and therefore we cannot serve them,” declared the MP.
“Europe and the United States support Israel and they both support the naturalization of Palestinians in Lebanon. Our land however does not support more people,” he added.
