Geagea calls on Christians, Druze to uphold reconciliation

Lebanese Forces Party leader, Samir Geagea, on Tuesday called on all the Christian and Druze residents of Lebanon’s mountain to adhere to reconciliation "regardless of the political incidents taking place today.”

"Politics may differ today, yet return to the agreement later; however, this should not reflect on the general atmosphere in our villages, towns, and cities in the mountainous regions,” Geagea said, deploring those giving incitement speeches when least needed. 

Geagea's remarks came after his visit, along with his wife, MP Strida Geagea, and an accompanying LF delegation to Dar al-Mouwahdin al-Druze in Verdun to offer condolences upon the loss of Sheikh Ali Zaineddine.
