Christian talks precede Parliament’s extension
Lebanese Forces and Kataeb Party sources told Al-Joumhouria that a meeting Tuesday between Kataeb MP Sami Gemayel and LF leader Samir Geagea addressed a wide-range of Lebanon issues.
Albert Costanian, who accompanied Gemayel to the LF headquarters in Maarab, said the visit underlined the strategic relations between the Kataeb and the Lebanese Forces.
Costanian, in remarks to Al-Joumhouria, said the Kataeb Party was “trying to find common ground of communication between Christians regardless of the presidential candidates [being proposed].”
He said the meeting also discussed the “strategic threat” to Lebanon and the Christians as a result of the influx of the Syrian refugees and ways to implement the Cabinet decisions to stop the exodus.
