Regarding the disarmament in Lebanon after what happened in the Syrian coast, the shepherd said: It is time to unite weapons in Lebanon and this is what was stated in the Taif Agreement, and that the army needs to be strengthened and what is required to support the states, but the solution now is a diplomatic, because we are not able to war, and no one can confront Israel and what resistance with all its weapons was able to do in the face of the Israeli machine.
