President Michel Suleiman on Sunday stressed that “it is necessary to put the national interest above all else and resort to the dialogue approach,” urging the Lebanese to “draw lessons from what’s happening around them.”

 

“Political leaders in particular must pay attention to the risks and threats the country is facing and must therefore act according to the national interest,” Suleiman said in a statement.

 

He urged political leaders to work for “consolidating unity among the country’s citizens.” [Link]
