What they said بشارة بطرس الراعي ×

A mother called to build the future

Harmony in diversity

A praying shepherd, a loving father, a wise builder, and a leader able to look beyond his time.

Banking reform and the restoration of rights must not remain postponed

What is required is that positions be turned into practical steps, and that the principle of a single capable state, holding the authority over weapons and security decisions, be entrenched

People have waited a long time, and they have the right to see a reform that restores confidence and preserves rights.

The state also needs a long breath to build internal unity, bring positions closer, and restore Lebanese confidence in their institutions. Unity is not imposed by decree, nor built in a single session; it needs dialogue, a shared will, and placing the national interest above private calculations.

Lebanese diplomacy remains before the test of turning foreign moves into tangible results: supporting the state, addressing the future of the south and the post-UNIFIL phase, restricting weapons, pushing negotiating tracks forward, and restoring political and economic support for Lebanon. What is required is clarity of purpose, continuity of work, and insistence on reaching the result.
