Bkirki”s Doors Open for Everybody, Including Franjieh
Maronite Patriarch Nasrallah Sfeir on Wednesday reiterated Bkirki”s support for reconciliation efforts and welcomed a reunion with Marada Movement leader Suleiman Franjieh.
He said Bkirki”s doors were open to all, including Franjieh.
"Bkirki”s doors are open for everybody, and MP Franjieh is from the heart of the sect," said Sfeir following a meeting in Diman with MP Sami Gemayel as well as Phalange party politburo members Sejaan Qazzi and Walid Fares.
The delegation put Sfeir in the picture of their weekend meeting with Franjieh at Phalange Party leader Amin Gemayel”s residence in Bikfaya.
Sfeir expressed satisfaction with that meeting, saying he hopes similar get-togethers would take place between the various Christian sides "that had grown distant from each other due to political circumstances."
Sfeir called for "deepening the spirit of dialogue and convergence, which contribute to consolidating national unity in the face of challenges threatening Lebanon."
