The Islamic-Christian summit held earlier today in Bkirki voiced concern over the presidential vacuum that is affecting Lebanon’s security and sovereignty, calling on local factions to seek the country’s best interest so as to end the ongoing impasse.
In a statement issued following the summit, the conferees warned that the delay in electing a president is negatively affecting all public and constitutional institutions, noting that paralysis is gradually plaguing the state administrations.
The spiritual leaders urged officials to give the social and economic affairs utmost attention and called for endorsing the state 2015 budget as soon as possible so as to re-inject dynamism into the economic cycle.
