Geagea Calls for Formation of Technocratic Cabinet as it is Only Serious Solution to Crisis
Lebanese Forces leader Samir Geagea called on Friday for the formation of a technocratic government “seeing as it is the only solution for the governmental crisis because a political one cannot be established at the moment.”
He said during the opening of the ninth session of the discussions on the LF’s internal structure: “We were hoping that parliamentary sessions would be held given the deteriorating social and economic situation, but these sessions would be illegitimate under a caretaker government.”
Addressing the Maroun al-Ras clashes that erupted on Nakba Day on Sunday, he stated: “With all respect to the martyrs and wounded, this rally was reckless because of the unpredictable results it would have caused.”
“Those who pushed the youths towards inevitable death should be held responsible,” he added.
Commenting on regional developments, Geagea stated: “Despite the current turbulence, it is a sign that the Arab world will enjoy a bright democratic future.”
