Lebanese Prime Minister vows to liberate all Lebanese territory

Lebanese Prime Minister Nawaf Salam affirmed his government's commitment to liberating all Lebanese territory, emphasizing the state's monopoly on weapons and the exclusive exercise of its sovereignty.

This came in the ministerial statement presented by Salam on Tuesday during the general parliamentary session to gain confidence.

The statement clarified that the government is committed to fully implementing UN Resolution 1701 while striving to keep Lebanon neutral from regional conflicts.

He also called for serious dialogue with Syria to facilitate the return of Syrian refugees, stressing the rejection of using Lebanon as a platform to direct statements against sister countries.

Discussions on the ministerial statement began this morning in the Lebanese Parliament, paving the way for a vote of confidence in the government, with sessions expected to last for two days.
