The Free Patriotic Movement and Lebanese Forces handed over to Maronite Patriarch Beshara al-Rahi a copy of the so-called declaration of intent between the two parties for his review. FPM lawmaker Ibrahim Kanaan and LF official Melhem Riachi stressed after talks with al-Rahi in Bkirki that the declaration isn’t targeting any side but merely to bridge the gap between Christians. Change and Reform bloc MP Kanaan clarified that the agreement represents a “new page and hope for Christians.” “We are not creating new affiliations,” Kanaan told reporters, pointing out that the FPM and the LF are seeking to generalize the declaration and implement it.
