Lebanese Forces leader Samir Geagea said he was ready for reconciliation because “the situation [in the North] cannot continue this way.”
After meeting with a Maronite League delegation in Maarab on Monday, Geagea said that “reconciliation needs more preparations from the Marada Movement’s side.”
He said he had “no objections to meeting with Hezbollah Secretary General Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah.” Geagea predicted that coordination between members of the March 14 alliance in the upcoming elections would be perfect, whereas the March 8 opposition parties would face “big problems.”
He said that Lebanese Forces official would no longer partake in “media bickering,” but added that if his “rivals keep opening the civil war files, then we will do the same. And we will demand the interrogation of all the past warlords, starting with [Parliament Speaker] Nabih Berri and continuing through to Sleiman Franjieh and all the Syrian officers, who served in Lebanon during the Syrian Hegemony.”
Geagea also said that the Lebanese Forces were considering the draft law concerning lowering the voting age to 18 years.
