NNA - Kataeb Party Leader, Sami Gemayel, on Friday rejected Speaker Nabih Berri’s call for dialogue that would precede open sessions for the election of a president.

“The proposal to hold successive sessions to elect a president on the condition that we participate in dialogue is an acknowledgment that you were deliberately violating the constitution and that all the excuses that you were using are invalid,” Gemayel said in a post on the X social media platform.

“The implementation of the constitution is not a political blackmail card. Parliament in not your property; it belongs to the Lebanese people,” Gemayel added.
