Minister of State Jean Ogassapian told the Voice of Lebanon (VOL) radio station on Thursday that some parties are at a battle against the Special Tribunal for Lebanon (STL).
On Tuesday, Free Patriotic Movement leader MP Michel Aoun said that the state has fallen and that “the judiciary is burning.” On Sunday, former head of Lebanon’s General Security Jamil as-Sayyed stated that “[Prime Minister Saad Hariri] should take a lie detector test to prove he did not support or fund false witnesses in the Special Tribunal for Lebanon (STL),” investigating the murder of ex-Premier Rafik Hariri, while Hezbollah has repeatedly questioned the credibility of the STL.
Ogassapian questioned “the calls for overthrowing legitimate institutions,” adding that all disputes in Lebanon can be resolved through state institutions.
He also called for halting “random campaigns [against the government] and engaging in dialogue [instead].”
