Displaced Minister: We will not despair and the righteous can save the country from the whales of money & power

 

NNA – Caretaker Minister of the Displaced, Issam Sharafeddine, deemed the situation in Lebanon as “not hopeless” like some are trying to portray, particularly those associated with agendas that have nothing to do with any national or humanitarian sense.

“On the contrary, there are many prospects and capabilities to lay the necessary foundations that will advance the national economy and gradually return it to the right track,” he said.

“There is no real intention to find radical solutions to the accumulated crises in the country. Rather, this fragile situation is intended to continue because some parties inside and outside the country believe that matters in the region may be in the interest of their well-known political projects, despite knowing that the facts show that their projects have failed, hitting a dead-end,” the Minister asserted.

His words came during his meeting today with a delegation from the “Sada4Press” website management, with whom he discussed the latest developments and the measures needed to stop the country’s frightening deterioration at all levels.

Referring to the issue of the displaced, Sharafeddine regretted that “the international approach to this dossier takes it to the political realm, although it is a humanitarian file par excellence.”

He added: “If there were pure intentions on part of the donors, we would have managed to secure the safe and voluntary return of more than 75 percent of the displaced gradually and within a well-thought-out organized program."

Sharafeddine concluded by hoping that “a new president of the republic will be elected and a new government will be formed, one that enjoys the people's confidence regardless of the number of votes of the deputies....This would restore public order to the institutions and give some hope to the people in this country, who will not despair but will strive to overcome the whales of money and power.”
