Gemayel Pledges Phalange Support for Salam Government Amid Political Tensions

MP Sami Gemayel, who leads the Lebanese Phalange Party, met with Prime Minister Nawaf Salam at the Government Palace on the occasion of Eid al-Adha, where the two discussed the broader political landscape and pressing developments.

During their conversation, Gemayel conveyed the Phalange Party's commitment to supporting both the government and its leader as they face what he characterized as "repeated threats calling for its overthrow." He underscored that "no one can stop the path to restoring state sovereignty."

Gemayel dismissed hostile rhetoric directed at the administration, declaring: "The language of betrayal and threats will not work. Rather, it will increase our determination to continue working to restore the prestige of the state and give hope for a better future for all Lebanese."

The remarks signal the Phalange's continued backing for the Salam-led government amid ongoing political tensions in the country.
