MP Ghassan Skaf to MTV: After the experience of Gaza and everything that has happened in Lebanon, we should not consider federalism, as it would be unjust to the Lebanese people; the unilateral decision-making by some does not justify turning to federalism
Skaf to MTV: The ceasefire must come from both sides, and Hezbollah’s tactical withdrawal will not be a defeat for it, as continued aggression against Lebanon will make Israel face the entire Lebanese population, and handing over the south to the Lebanese army signifies a return to the state
Skaf to MTV: The intensified Israeli airstrikes are a prelude to a ground military operation in southern Lebanon, and it is the duty of the Lebanese state to request a ceasefire from Hezbollah and hand over the party’s positions to the army, alongside a broad diplomatic effort
Skaf to MTV: We are capable of electing a president within a week, and I have sensed a shift and flexibility in Speaker Berri’s stance regarding the presidential candidate and dialogue
