The "Strong Lebanon" bloc held its regular meeting, headed by MP Gebran Bassil, and discussed its agenda and issued the following statement: 1 - Two days later, an official round of negotiations between Lebanon and Israel will begin in Washington, and despite the internal division regarding it, the bloc that supports the principle of negotiation to liberate land and restore rights leaves its shape to the appropriate circumstances and negotiating principles, but it doubts Israel’s intention to adhere to the ceasefire, which is the starting point for meeting Lebanon’s demands for a comprehensive Israeli withdrawal from Lebanese territory, and stopping all forms of aggression against Lebanese sovereignty and the right of the people to return to their land in the south, even if over the rubble of their homes. 2 - There is a feeling prevailing among the Lebanese, regardless of their orientations, that they are an abandoned people, with no government or administrations taking care of their affairs, not only in light of the continuation of the Israeli war, but also in terms of addressing their life problems at a time when the living crisis is intensifying and new financial risks are looming on the horizon. These risks push the bloc to raise its voice and warn out of a sense of national responsibility. 3 - The confusion that prevails regarding the general amnesty law reflects the seriousness of this file and the political and judicial crisis behind it. Therefore, the bloc defines its position carefully: Yes to the release of the oppressed, non-competitors, Islamists and others, after their prolonged detention without trial. No to the release of the killers of the Lebanese army. No to the release of drug traffickers and perpetrators of premeditated murder. The bloc considers that any general amnesty for crimes is in itself a blow to the rule of law and the idea of ​​the state, just as keeping detainees in prisons without trial is a blow to human and citizen rights and Lebanese law.
