President Michel Aoun expressed optimism on Tuesday that the current crisis could be overcome, "because we are exerting all our efforts to overcome difficulties, but we always need the solidarity of the society", hoping that the new Government will be formed in the next few days, and that the new year will carry gradual improvement to the current situation.
President Aoun also pointed out that "What we are doing today is an attempt to reunite in politics to form an effective Government which addresses the international community, who wants to help us, after our sufferings from the effects of international wars in our region, foremost of which is the heavy Syrian displacement to Lebanon", considering that the chaos which ruled the country, in the past three decades, produced the explosion that took place today, due to the inability of people to bear anymore.
"If the crisis remains the same and citizens protest without any calmness, then the crisis will worsen, because permanent protest in the street and closure of roads disrupts the rest of our production" President Aoun said.
President Aoun's stances came during his meeting with a group of retired officers, who came to congratulate him on the occasion of feasts and to discuss the current situation.
