Greek Orthodox Metropolitan of Beirut Elias Audi reiterated that “the country remains without a president to lead the salvation and reform process” as “the world is boiling around us, the drums of war are beating, and anxiety about the future is gripping the Lebanese.”

During his Sunday sermon, he highlighted that the country “lacks an effective government that can keep up with the situation and developments.”

He also stressed that the leaders “have led the country and the people to the depths of hell, disregarding the rights of the people and the salvation of the country, working only for their interests.”

“The people must wake up from the spell of sectarianism, tribalism and factionalism cast by the leaders,” he warned.
