Jumblat Looks Forward for the Syrian-Saudi Summit to re-fortify Lebanese-Syrian Relations
Progressive Socialist Party leader MP Walid Jumblat said "the upcoming Syrian-Saudi summit will hark back the relations between Lebanon and Syria in accordance with the Taef Accord."
In his weekly article to al-Anbaa magazine, Jumblat praised the heroic role of the Syrian military forces in shadows of the 1973 war against Israel. "Coinciding with this year”s commemorative event is the inter-Arab approach which is a most appropriate occasion to forget previous confrontations and the harsh escalatory tones between Lebanon and its neighboring country", MP Jumblat added.
"Both countries should establish a common ground abiding by the Taef Accord and based on a geography and a history which bring them together", added Jumblat.
Jumblat considered that "if Egypt joined the Syrian-Lebanese-Saudi triangle, an Arab security network will be created to make front to any future plans targeting the integrity, freedom and sovereignty of the Arab region".
These paralleled events should be taken advantage of and "the Arab countries should unite against the Israeli aggression", Jumblat concluded.
