Maronite Patriarch Asks That Rally Be Cancelled
The Maronite Patriarch called on the “Lebanese and Maronites, who called for a gathering in support of Bkirki on Sunday,” to cancel the rally.
A statement released by the patriarchy on Monday read that the “Maronite Patriarch [Nasrallah Boutros Sfeir] thanks the organizers of the gathering for their sympathy. However, he asks that the rally not take place, due to the delicate situation in the country.”
