Aoun: Lebanon is not harming Arab interests
2017-01-12
[ENGLISH.ALARABIYA.NET] Lebanese President Michel Aoun
...a wholly-owned subsidiary of Hizbullah...
has reiterated that Leb has no intentions of working against Arab interests, particularly those of Soddy Arabia
...a kingdom taking up the bulk of the Arabian peninsula. Its primary economic activity involves exporting oil and soaking Islamic rubes on the annual hajj pilgrimage. The country supports a large number of princes in whatcha might call princely splendor. When the oil runs out the rest of the world is going to kick sand in the Soddy national face...
In an interview with Al Arabiya General Manager Turki Aldakhil, during Aoun’s visit to the kingdom this week, the president noted that Saudi Arabia was the first country to invite him on a foreign visit since his inauguration.

The president said that Leb was against weaponized conflict within his country, adding that the recent presence of arms was linked to "certain circumstances."

Aoun said that he there is no longer space for resistance within Leb, as resistance within the Middle East has been overridden by interference from the US, Iran and Russia.

With regards to domestic issues in Leb, Aoun said there were clauses in the 1989 Taif Agreement, which ended the civil war in Leb, that have not been fully implemented. He said it was of high importance for these clauses to be implemented, particularly electoral law, in order to promote co-existence and the proper representation of the different segments of Lebanese society.

He added that there are some electoral laws implemented "1992 onwards resulted in parties loyal to Syria gaining a certain advantage. Syria left and this advantage remained."
