All credible Candidates Considered for Speaker
“We did not take any decision regarding the position of speaker, but we might nominate a candidate other than Speaker Nabih Berri,” said Lebanese Forces MP Antoine Zahra.
Zahra told OTV on Thursday that the majority is not asking for disarming Hezbollah, rather it is urging for the issue to be discussed through dialogue.
He assured that the March 14 alliance has been asking for a calm atmosphere prior to and following the 2009 parliamentary elections, because Lebanon has important local and regional issues to deal with.
“We will not approve a new ministerial statement similar to that of the current cabinet,” Zahra said, a reference to legitimizing the Resistance and its arms.
