Maronite Patriarch, Bechara Boutros Rahi, met in Bkerki on Saturday with head of the Finance and Budget Parliamentary Committee, MP Ibrahim Kanaan.
On emerging, Kanaan hailed the Patriarch's positions and initiatives in this difficult period that aim at saving Lebanon and helping it overcome its crises, with the cooperation of all parties and without adopting any of the political stances presented.
"It was evident to me during this meeting that the baseline between Baabda and Bkerki is one and the reform goals required of the Patriarch are the goals of His Excellency the President of the Republic, and there are efforts by Bkerki to reach common denominators to get out of the situation we are in," revealed Kanaan.
He added: "The country is in need of good initiatives, and we want to reach results, reform and a project. It is not possible to go to classical governments, as was the case in the past, which practically turn into governments of barricades...Consequently, the most important thing is the common vision to save Lebanon in all the accounts that are presented."
Kanaan concluded by expressing all hope and faith that resurrection will follow the sufferings that the Lebanese are currently enduring, "and it will be at the hands of great men, the most prominent of whom is His Excellency the President, His Beatitude the Patriarch, and all the good people who want cooperation, because the resurrection is that of Lebanon and the Lebanese society in all its spectrums."
