The head of the Lebanese Forces party, Samir Geagea, assured that “there is communication through” military “officers with groups of the revolution, distinguishing between” groups of people who participated in the “revolution”, which was the “real revolution”, and among groups that spoke out in the name of “revolution.” He asks, “Where was the“ revolution ”when Prime Minister Saad Hariri was reassigned to form the government? She was absent, but that does not mean that the people agree with what happened, “noting that he had many observations on the performance of groups” that are eager to shorten this revolution and have not been able to revive it since last June.
Geagea, in an interview with “mtv”, listed the reasons for the reluctance of the “forces” to participate in the demonstrations, including “the presentation of groups of demands such as changing the electoral law and other important controversial issues, and some lived in the past as if they had not yet realized that Stalin was gone, and the chaos witnessed by the demonstrations. ” The pressure exerted on the security forces did not require confrontations with the protesters, which is something we do not want, because stability is our priority, as for the objective of the “revolution” for us, it is an economic sustenance.
In response to a question that after the four-year test of the era, would you have voted for Aoun if the election were today? Geagea replied, “We certainly wouldn’t have chosen Aoun, but we acted differently.” He was asked: Why the pact has not been fulfilled, until today, is it the circumstances, the environment of the president or the role of Gebran Bassil? He said: “The impact of circumstances is limited, especially if the will to achieve, but the four years were bad. We do not hold the President of the Republic responsible for everything that happened in the country, but at the same time, no serious attempts were made to reform the situation, on the contrary, the losses increased than they were before the time.
He commented on the issue of the relationship of the “forces” with the “Pact”, going from the coalition, to the opposition to Bassil with the neutralization of Aoun, to the rivalry with the two, saying: “We fight with everyone, not only with Aoun and Bassil, even with Hariri, with whom we were united by an alliance that Sunnah continued, because we had principles and we did not want to be with anyone, but in the position in which we should be.
He continued: “Two months ago, there was a wave asking us to resign from the House of Representatives, and we were subjected to some spontaneous attacks and some of the biggest deliberately, but we had long sessions to discuss the matter and we saw that the resignation it could be profitable for the foreseeable future, but we lost the ability to influence and oppose from within the House of Representatives, just as we do today. “
In response to a question about the opposition of the “forces”, today it appears only verbal. Where will the files be opened? Geagea said: “The opposition today is not about the archives, but the larger archive, which is the existence of the current authority, which needs to be reconfigured. We do not forget social concern, which requires a great effort on our part, since we distribute large amounts of food aid and medicine, and we carry out great social work in the areas affected by the port explosion.
Geagea continued: “The forces’ relations with the outside, especially with the Arab world, are the best among all political forces,” noting the ability of “the forces to communicate with various political forces, with the exception of Hezbollah, which it’s something no other party has. ” “.
They asked him: Do you communicate with the Free Patriotic Movement? He replied: “Yes, there is communication even if we are no longer in a coalition relationship. Let’s say it’s “on the block” communication.
As for the relationship with the Future Movement? Geagea said: “We agreed with him on March 14, and we still agree with him on the strategic line, but when the internal situation became a priority, differences and differences began to emerge.”
In response to a question about whether Samir Geagea had to “swallow the mousse” for years in his relationship with Hariri? The head of the “forces” said: “Yes, and it has been proven, year after year, that we look with different eyes many of the internal affairs of the State, which required separation.” When asked about Hariri’s words, in his mtv television appearance, on “the forces,” Geagea said: “Did Hariri say that we disagree strategically? His words were of the type” Atito and he did not give me “,” Qali and Qallu “and” Tell me in Saudi Arabia “…
And Geagea continues: “It was necessary, after the inability to deal with the current authority, to go hand in hand and with the” Democratic Junta “to resign from Parliament, impose early parliamentary elections and reconfigure authority, but the “Future” and the “Socialist” refused to do so. .
What if he calls what Hariri is doing suicide, as some describe it? He said: “We believe that the risks of what you do are far greater than the possibility of success, but we will not delay in taking any positive steps that your government takes.”
As for giving the government confidence? Geagea emphasized that “the matter depends on the method of government formation, but what is happening so far is not encouraging.”
And what about the validity of your position regarding the celebration of a Maronite summit in Bkerke? He replied: “This is correct, because the dispute today is not Christian-Islamic, but with some Christians, specifically with the Free Patriotic Movement, and with some Muslims, specifically with Hezbollah.”
Geagea describes the relationship with the Marada movement as “fluid”: “We communicate and hold meetings, especially at union polling stations, and we do not attack each other and we are interested in good neighborliness, and each of us knows what you can get from the other ”.
As for the “brigades” and the resigned deputies? He said: “We are also communicating with them and I want to reveal that we have received an offer to replace some of the deputies who resign in the committees, but we refuse, because we have principles, but on the other hand, each team must respect the size of the other”.
In response to a question about your opinion about what is being said about a front that is being formed and that includes independent deputies with groups of the “revolution”? Geagea said: “We have no problem since they are on the same political line, but what we hope is that they do not shoot the opponent, and then throw bullets at the ‘forces’.
On the fourth anniversary of President Michel Aoun’s election, and in response to a question about how he greeted the president, who is geographically distant in Maarab, and politically far away, the point of the divorce? Geagea said, “I don’t envy him for what’s in him. President Aoun had a golden opportunity to become a national hero, and when he took office, the political forces around him were able to fill the accumulated gaps, but what happened after four years is that these gaps increased dozens of times. I personally, and repeatedly, tried to draw your attention to many mistakes. I also held a series of meetings in my office with officials of the “movement” on the electricity dossier, before we came out in opposition to the public, without being able to persuade them to change focus.
Geagea repeated the word regrettably three times, before finally asking: Did the obsession with the succession of the presidency prevent the success of the time? Then he replied, “Certainly. But President Aoun overlooked the fact that the best way to inherit the presidency was for him to exercise it properly.
