Lebanese Forces leader Samir Geagea said army commander Gen. Michel Suleiman would be Lebanon”s first "real" President.
Geagea said after waiting 18 years of Syrian dominance over Lebanon, "Gen. Suleiman would be the first real President."
"Suleiman will be the first real president after the late Rene Mouawad," he said.
Geagea agreed that what was achieved in Doha was the best of all possible options.
He stressed, however, that the most important part was implementing the accord.
"After the sit-in in downtown Beirut has been lifted, we will now move to electing a president," Geagea told reporters.
"The Parliament, which was closed for more than a year, will now open its doors," he added.
"We will finally leave the streets and return to state institutions," Geagea said.
