Geagea promises 'reformist and sovereign' exit for presidential crisis

Lebanese Forces leader Samir Geagea announced Tuesday that “dialogue is underway to find a reformist and sovereign exit for the presidential election among the various parliamentary blocs that believe in real and serious dialogue.”

Geagea’s remarks come after MP Melhem Riachi of the LF revealed that the opposition forces are preparing to launch a “Plan B” to deal with the presidential crisis in late January.

“This is the pathway for a real dialogue that can lead to a result, instead of the formal dialogues that we have become accustomed to and which have never led to a result over the past 17 years,” the LF leader added.
