Self Distancing Means non Interference in Others Affairs- Lebanese FM

BEIRUT,(ST)_ Lebanese Foreign Minister Adnan Mansour  stressed need to respect the bilateral agreements signed between Lebanon and Syria, noting that what is happening in Syria, is but  Syrian internal affair and that self-distancing means non-interference in the affairs of others.

“There  are bilateral agreements between us and Syria that must be respected and we have to avoid the risk .. It is not enough to say we want to dissociate from  the events in Syria,” Mansour told a delegation representing  Lebanese Editors led by  Chairman Elias Aoun,  adding that “what is going there  for two years is  beyond  the Syrian framework to include the  region and we raised the slogan of self-distancing, considering that what is happening in Syria is an internal matter  and called for not letting the Lebanese border a conduit for intervention. “

Mansour explained that the policy of self-distancing means non-interference in the affairs of others , but  facts revealed  smuggling arms, and people and the confiscation of  Lutfallah 2  ship.

 

He also noted the issue of displaced Syrians due to security incidents , considering , ” It is not our duty to assess  what is happening inside Syria if we want to adopt a policy of self-distancing, but we have to see the implications of what is happening on Lebanon  and if Lebanon  inclined to be Syria ‘s  soft  loin. “

He said that the reason that security incidents in northern Lebanon and the borders no longer a source of tension  is due to the Syrian Arab Army cleansing  of Talkalakh and al-Qusair  to Talkalkh from armed terrorists  .

Mansour reiterated that there is no solution to the crisis in Syria except through dialogue, pointing to a change in European attitudes regarding  this crisis.

Concerning  current conditions taking place in Egypt Mansour said that Lebanon respects the will of the Egyptian people, pointing out that Egypt is an Arab compass and a functioning state in the Arab world, for which ” we hope  to restore  due role.”
