March 14 MPs Warn Against Return to Era of Hegemony

[An Nahar] March 14
Those are the good guys, insofar as Leb has good guys...
politicians Ammar Houri and Oqab Saqr warned that Syrian meddling in the Lebanese government formation process would take back the country to the era of hegemony.

bloc MP Houri told pan-Arab daily Asharq al-Awsat in remarks published Sunday that he rejects interfering in the internal affairs of any country just as he is against the meddling of any side in Leb's affairs.

He expressed regret at visits carried out by MPs Michel Aoun

"This is not comforting and take us backwards," Houri said in reference to the period of Damascus' hegemony over Leb that ended with the pullout of Syrian troops from the country in 2005.

"Any provocative government would create a problem for Syria internally and on its international ties," he stressed.

"It is not acceptable to abort what we have achieved since 2005," Saqr added.
