Council of Muftis calls for election of Lebanon president
Thursday, 3 April, 2008 @ 4:17 AM
Beirut- The Lebanese council of Muftis urged the opening of the parliament and the election of the president of Lebanon, at the end of their meeting which was held under Grand Mufti of the Republic Sheikh Mohammad Rashid Qabbani
The council of Muftis issued the following statement
" Lebanon boycotted the summit in Damascus to express its displeasure over the absence of a Lebanese president . We strongly object to the continued blocking of the presidential elections , specially since all parties have agreed on Army chief General Michel Suleiman. It is about time the parliament is opened to elect the president of the Republic and the down town Beirut protest lifted since it paralyzed the Lebanese economy. The formation of the new government of national unity should follow as well as the an agreement should be reached on an electoral law for parliamentary elections that will be able to achieve justice for all the Lebanese people"
