Sfeir Renews Support for Centrist Bloc, Says He is Neither With March 8 Nor March 14
Maronite Patriarch Nasrallah Sfeir on Thursday renewed his support for a centrist parliamentary bloc and declared he was neither with March 8 nor March 14 Forces.
"I am with a centrist bloc that would facilitate resolving domestic issues," Sfeir told reporters following a meeting with members of the Youth Shadow Government.
He said he was surprised as to why some interpreted his statements as being supportive of the ruling March 14 coalition and against the Hizbullah-led March 8 Forces.
Addressing the delegation, Sfeir said: "Learn from others' mistakes so you won't make them yourself."
He called on all Lebanese to serve their country, particularly those in power "should use their power to serve the best interest of all citizens and not their own interest."
