The head of the Free Patriotic Movement, Gebran Bassil, said he is willing to leave political life, if convicted of any corruption charges, in the context of sanctions imposed by the United States for alleged corruption.
Basil wrote, on Twitter, yesterday Monday, “I hope to go to the subject of the accusations to the other and reveal everything, and I will leave political life if they find me guilty of any corruption charge, and a large country like the United States that has all the world money transfers, can’t you reveal it all? Please note that I am the first to reveal your stories to the Lebanese public.

“History has taught us that isolating any sect leads to an explosion, and here we are talking about a complete component, not just Hezbollah,” he said.
He remarked that “the blockade has triumphed economically and financially, so the situation has worsened, but we have not reached discord and explosion. I am with the concept of the State and the document of understanding with Hezbollah, which only talks about this matter and is a defensive strategic phrase, the first thing mentioned in it. “
