“I ask the government to embrace doctors we are losing. If we lose our universities, doctors, and banks, what will remain of Lebanon, the Arab League, Arab Bank, and Arab Hospital?”, Maronite Patriarch Mar Bechara Boutros Rahi said.

Rahi, who presided over Sunday mass sermon in Bkerki, considered the elections an opportunity for people to change their reality for the better.

“Successful parliamentary elections are a guarantee of successful presidential elections, and thus a president will come who is able to get the country out of its crisis.”

Commenting on the issue of capital control, he considered that the law should have been passed in 2019.
