During the meeting, we stressed the need to maintain the security and stability of the capital at this delicate stage. We also agreed that awareness and self-control constitute the basic foundation for protecting our city of Beirut and preserving the safety of its people. We will follow up with His Excellency the President of the Republic and the Prime Minister on what happened in Al-Janzeer Wheel, to ensure that security is maintained and the laws are respected. Based on the meeting, we call on our people to open the roads and cooperate together to protect Beirut and enhance its stability.”
