We Will Run Elections in Jezzine Where Visa is Required to Enter
Phalange Party leader Amin Gemayel said Sunday that his party will run in elections throughout Lebanon, pointing that polls are going to be "fateful."
"Elections are going to be fateful because they will determine the future of Lebanon and will turn a painful page of Lebanon”s history to open a new chapter of national and political path," Gemayel said during the opening of a Phalange party center in Kahhale.
While pledging allegiance to Bkirki and the Lebanese army, Gemayel called on all Lebanese, living in the country or abroad, to vote.
He said his party chose Edmond Rizk to run for elections in the southern town of Jezzine "despite fears over Jezzine which has become completely outside state authority and where one has to obtain a visa from status quo forces before entering."
