At a time when the deep state is still able to stop some sovereign files, we see, after our efforts for more than six years, that the real state proves itself in the file of medicines non-compliant with international standards, and orders their withdrawal from circulation out of concern for the safety of citizens. On the other hand, this sovereign success is crowned by the victory of the students of the Lebanese Forces party, which seeks to consolidate the concept of the real state. Congratulations on the two achievements.
