PM Salam urges Lebanese to reject hate speech and avoid sectarian strife

Lebanese Prime Minister Nawaf Salam said that “no matter how deep the political disagreement may be, and while I remain committed to freedom of opinion, I have always warned against slipping into any form of expression that includes personal insults, defamation, bullying, and accusations of treason, all of which are condemnable and contribute to inflaming tensions and stirring sectarian sensitivities.”

In a post on X, Salam appealed to citizens to exercise the highest degree of awareness and reject hate speech in order to prevent the country from being dragged into an atmosphere of strife with dangerous consequences.
