The source clarified to the newspaper that the clarifications issued by the head of the Antelias Archdiocese for the Maronites, Bishop Antoine Bou Najem, and the orchestrator of meetings between representatives of Christian forces to approve what is known as the "Bkerke Document" have created a positive atmosphere, preventing the escalation of sectarian and extremist alignments.
