Lebanese Preside Joseph Aoun said: “Iernal peace is always higher than any consideration and preservation is the basic task of the army and security forces, while these forces are fully reduced to achieve this goal (iernal peace).
In a meeting with a delegation from the Arab League, he said: “If the vigilance and efforts of the army and the security forces to secure and protect the citizens and support the Lebanese community with all its compones and spectrum, Lebanon would not have restored our security and stability today.”
The Lebanese preside strongly emphasized: Criticizing or targeting the army and security forces is by no means acceptable, because they are also red lines that should not be raised.
Referring to the coordination of the two institutions, he added: “The army and the security forces are fully coordinating their missions and are at the forefro of combating terrorism, organized crimes and drug trafficking and fulfilling all security duties with the utmost commitme.”
Earlier, the Lebanese parliame Speaker Nabih Barry, in response to criticism of the Lebanese army, insisted that the army belongs to the whole coury and that any damage to the army was forbidden.
“The Lebanese army is a red line and it is forbidden to target anyone,” the Lebanese parliame Speaker said. It is forbidden to harm the army because the army does not belong to any part. The army does not support any other side against the other. The army is for the whole coury.
