Lebanese President: We need seven years to get out of the crisis.
The Lebanese president said Friday evening that the country needs 6 to 7 years to get out of the current crisis.
Lebanese President Michel Aoun said Friday evening that Lebanon needs 6 to 7 years to get out of the crisis it is suffering from.
“We have reached the result of theft, corruption and failure, and this imposes a certain change on us, and this change takes time, and Lebanon needs 6 to 7 years to get out of the crisis it is suffering from,” he wrote in a Twitter message. ».
Lebanon has come under pressure from some Arab countries along the Persian Gulf in recent months.
The recent tensions between Lebanon and the Gulf states, especially Saudi Arabia, began when the resigned Lebanese Minister of Information, George Qardahi, called for an end to the war against Yemen in a televised interview prior to his appointment.
Asked how he assessed the current developments in Yemen, Qardahi said, “The brutal aggression against Yemen, which has been going on for eight years, must stop. “What the Yemenis are doing is their legal right to defend themselves, and I respect the resilience of the Yemeni people in the face of this aggression.”
Following these remarks, Saudi Arabia, Bahrain, and the United Arab Emirates each recalled their ambassadors from Lebanon, and Kuwait, in a similar move, recalled its ambassador to Lebanon and gave the Lebanese embassy’s 48-hour opportunity to leave the country. George Qardahi finally resigned under pressure.
On the other hand, following pressure from Bahraini officials on the Beirut government, the Lebanese Interior Minister ordered the expulsion of members of the Bahraini opposition party Al-Wefaq.
The reason for this action was announced by the members of Al-Wefagh party holding a meeting in Beirut in which Al-Khalifa was criticized.
