Bassil asserted that the Lebanese are with the achievement of real, just and comprehensive peace in the region based on the restoration of rights.
“There will be no peace without the establishment of the Palestinian state and the return of refugees to their home,” the Lebanese politician added, pointing out that what have been proposed in Lebanon is a surrender and it will lead to internal war.
He also stressed that the siege being imposed on Lebanon is a pressure card in order to subjugate the Lebanese people to the proposed plots related to accepting normalization with the Israeli entity without the restoration of rights.
