Sfeir also said there is a need for agreement among Lebanese in order to get out of problems that "have cost us a lot in the past."
According to MP Ziad al-Qadri, the patriarch also stressed on the adoption of the policy of extended hand and upgrading the role of state institutions without obstacles.
