Makary Praises The Lebanese-Qatari Relations: I Wish the MPs Sensed the Seriousness of the Situation and Elected a President

Caretaker Information Minister Ziad al-Makari said that the situation in Gaza affects Lebanon and the region.

“I wish the representatives sensed the seriousness of what is happening in the region and rushed to save their country and elect a president so that Lebanon would not become a small detail in a big deal,” Al-Makary noted.

In an interview with Al-Sharq, the minister pointed out that the five-party committee, which includes Qatar, Saudi Arabia, the United States, France, and Egypt, “made great efforts to fill the vacuum in the presidency and urge the Lebanese forces to elect a president.”

“We acknowledge the role of the committee and its efforts, which we hope will be crowned with success, knowing that electing a president is the responsibility and duty of the Lebanese, but unfortunately they have failed to do so,” he went on.

Finally, he praised the Qatari-Lebanese relations, saying: “The relations between the two countries have developed and witnessed, over the past three decades, great development at various levels and fields, which made them strong, honest, and solid.”
