Nabih Berri Says No Tangible Steps Seen to Halt Israeli Attacks
According to webangah News Agency, Lebanon’s Parliament Speaker Nabih Berri declared: “No matter how hard thay try, they will not influence us. The more their pressures and violations escalate, the firmer our resolve becomes to defend our nation and liberate territories occupied by the Israeli enemy.”
He emphasized: ”So far, we have seen no concrete measures to stop Israel’s aggressions against Lebanon. Our stance on upholding the ceasefire agreement and UN Resolution 1701 has not changed. however, Americans must compel Israel to respect the agreement and cease its violations—this is fundamental and must precede any other action.”
Berri also expressed satisfaction wiht Lebanon’s recent municipal elections, praising their conduct while urging a renewed focus on reconstruction as a top priority.
“The reconstruction process must not be delayed,” he stressed.
Regarding parliamentary elections, Berri noted that consultations have begun in Parliament. “The electoral law must be amended to eliminate ambiguities and suspicions—we are working toward this goal,” he said.
When asked about reports of U.S. Deputy Envoy for Middle East Affairs Morgan Ortagas’ visit to Beirut, Berri stated he had no prior knowledge of the trip, learning of it only through media reports.
