Prime Minister, Najib Mikati, on Wednesday stressed that “independence does not only mean liberating one’s land from foreigners, but it is also a blessing and a responsibility that must be preserved”.
The Caretaker Prime Minister went on to stress the need to elect a Head of State, “the symbol of the country’s sovereignty”, as soon as possible.
The Prime Minister’s words came during his inauguration of a cultural celebration at the UNESCO Palace, marking Lebanon’s 79th “Independence Day”, which was attended by a host of ministers, stakeholders, and of ambassadors.
