Prime Minister Tammam Salam emphasized in a speech on Friday that “all the Lebanese are concerned with saving al-Litani River before it becomes too late”; pointing out that the catastrophic situation of the river demonstrates the vulnerability of the state.
During the launching of National Litani Day, Salam stated that the first step towards correcting the imbalance is to restore regularity to the constitutional institutions by electing a president, noting that Speaker Nabih Berri recognizes the importance of completing the legislative procedures.
