Beirut: "Change Movement" Party Head, Elie Mahfoud, articulated on platform "X" today that Lebanon's strength is rooted in transforming its diversity into a unified decision-making process, which is essential for building a just state for all its citizens.
According to National News Agency - Lebanon, Mahfoud outlined three foundational pillars that underpin Lebanon's existence: the complementarity between Christian, Muslim, and Druze communities forming a balanced state partnership; utilizing pluralism and diversity as strategic strengths converting differences into resilience and creativity; and responsible freedom achieved through the rule of law and effective institutions.
Mahfoud emphasized that Lebanon should not be viewed as a temporary settlement or proxy battleground but as a comprehensive national model. This model is delicately balanced between maintaining identity while embracing openness, and harmonizing particularism with a shared national framework.
He further highlighted that Lebanon's future depends not on fear or isolation but on confidence in its national project, which encompasses a strong state, a free society, and genuine partnerships that ensure stability and prosperity.
