“On behalf of the AMAL Movement and Hezbollah, I declare lifting the cover off every perpetrator, offender, abuser or drug dealer and on behalf of our two parliamentary blocs I call for issuing a premeditated general amnesty that excludes homicides and attacks on security and defense forces.

 

As for the Cabinet formation, Berri stressed that Lebanon’s Cabinet must represent all Lebanese forces and its decisions must be independent and based on the national unity.
