President Aoun from Bkerki: Lebanese Army should be sole bearers of weapons

Lebanese President Joseph Aoun reaffirmed from Bkerki on Sunday that the issue of weapons should not be addressed through the media but through direct and purposeful dialogue with concerned parties.

"When I mentioned the weapons in my oath speech, I did so with intent—a decision has been made," Aoun said.

He stressed that the Lebanese people do not want war and that the Lebanese Armed Forces should be solely responsible for carrying arms.
