French Ambassador to Lebanon, Anne Grillo, on Sunday called on the Lebanese to vote for those who will defend their rights and aspirations in Parliament.

"My Lebanese friends, on this election day that is important for the future of your country, you have the opportunity to vote for those who will represent you in Parliament, and they will have to defend your rights and aspirations to build the Lebanon you want," Grillo said.

"Your participation matters," the French diplomat added.
