March 14 Urges Speedy Conclusion to Defensive Strategy Topic
March 14 forces general-secretariat stressed that "a main topic imposes itself in the frame of national dialogue, and President Michel Suleiman keeps calling for it, which is the safeguarding of domestic peace and coexistence," it also called for a speedy conclusion to the defensive national strategy.
After an exceptional meeting held on Thursday, March 14 forces congratulated, in a statement, the Lebanese people on forming the government at last, and stressed that the rise of the main institution responsible for constitutional resolutions would unleash the wheel of the parliamentary democratic republican system institutions.
The general-secretariat pointed at the "major national meaning for the existence of PM Saad Hariri at the head of the government — which is itself a victory for the Lebanese independence movement and a translation for the results of June 7 parliamentary elections", and expressed its determination to support Hariri in the next political stage.
March 14 forces promised the Lebanese that they will stay committed to the principles of the Cedar Revolution topped by the Islamic-Christian partnership.
On the other hand, March 14 forces general-secretariat coordinator Fares Souaid said after the meeting: "We were expecting from Phalange Party the reform paper they were calling for, but they didn”t submit it, and that party has “white hands” in March 14 and is a founder party for Cedar Revolution."
"The subject is not problematic with March 14, and we must discuss the organizational hierarchy of March 14 inside the walls. If any party has remarks then that should not be treated through debates but rather through participating together in enforcing this movement (March 14)," concluded Souaid.
