MP Najat Aoun Saliba’s statement after her meeting with the President of the Republic:
- We reaffirm our full support for President Aoun’s positions and the measures he is taking at this delicate stage.
- Lebanon is facing an opportunity for internal solidarity, and the President is working to strengthen the unity of the Lebanese.
- We raised the issue of quarries and crushers, particularly the decision to extend their operation for an additional ten years. The problem lies not only in the decision itself, but also in the lack of compliance with environmental regulations and the failure to enforce them effectively.
- We called for a transition toward a sustainable economy instead of one that depletes natural resources.
- We stressed the need to implement the Environment Ministry’s master plan and to impose fees and compensation on violators.
