The Maronite Patriarch, Bechara Rai, underlined that "reconciliation is necessary for our Lebanese society," stressing that "with it, wars of personal interest, which are more dangerous than armed wars, would end."
He also underlined the importance of national reconciliation, in a country where divisions are growing deeper, and the election of a President of the Republic to rebuild a state of national unity.
In his Sunday homily, the Maronite Patriarch also denounced the exclusion of Maronites due to the absence of an elected head of state, recalling the golden period when Maronites were in power. According to him, this period was marked by privileged relations between Lebanon, the Arab and the Islamic world.
