Lebanese Prime Minister Nawaf Salam, who laid a wreath of flowers at the Martyrs’ Monument in central Beirut on the 50th anniversary of the commemoration of the Lebanese Civil War on Sunday, said, “We must learn from the tragedies of the war and it is time to rebuild our state capable of protecting us through its army.”
On the occasion, he emphasized the importance of Lebanese unity, stressing, “This is the square of the martyrs of all Lebanon, which has always brought the Lebanese together. It is important for us to restore the trust of the Lebanese people and contribute to the process of reform.”
He added, “This commemoration has taught us, and we continue to learn from it, not to repeat the sufferings endured by our people. It is time to build our state and regain trust in it. This is our responsibility as those in charge of this country.”
Regarding his visit to Syria tomorrow, on Monday, he affirmed that the issue of the Lebanese who disappeared in Syrian prisons will be among the topics on the talks’ agenda. “I hope to return with good news about the disappeared in Syria, and tomorrow I will share more about this matter,” he said.
Concerning the situation in the south, Salam stated that there is no need for Israel to remain in the locations it is still occupying, noting that “in this era of satellites, everyone can know what is happening on the ground without setting up or occupying locations.”
