Berri: Lebanon and the Lebanese will not be false witnesses in the new death penalty against the Palestinian people

Parliament Speaker Nabih Berri said on Wednesday in a statement issued by his press office that "the deal of the century" has dashed the Palestinians' little hope of building a country of their own, with Jerusalem its capital.

"This agreement is just a bribe to sell the rights, sovereignty, dignity, and Palestinian Arab lands with Arab money," Berri said.

Berri reiterated: "We reconfirm that Lebanon and the Lebanese will not be false witnesses in the new death penalty against the Palestinian people and their legitimate rights, including their right to return home.”

The statement also read: “We will not accept, regardless of the conditions, to be an accomplice in the sale or exchange of these rights.”
