No one dared or dared to take a step like this!


Justice Minister Adel Nassar revealed today, Monday, that “the independence of the judiciary is one of its most important goals in the ministry to protect the judiciary from any interventions or pressure.”

Nassar said, in an interview with the “Lebanese scene” program, on the “Al -Hurra” channel: “Notes will be collected on this law and its crystallization to put its final form, so that it can be sent to the Administration and Justice Committee, to reach the House of Representatives quickly, and within a month and a half at the latest.”

He stressed that “he was not subjected to any political pressure. Nor was he asked for anything in the file of judicial appointments.

He affirmed, “His great confidence in the Presidents of the Republic, General Joseph Aoun, the government, Nawaf Salam, and the head of the Supreme Judicial Council, Judge Suhail Abboud,” and said: “No one has called me to launch or recommend any figure in the Supreme Judicial Council, and no one dared or will be dared to take a step like this.”

In response to a question about the date of the formation of the Supreme Judicial Council, Nassar said: “Very soon, I am in the process of studying this issue and proposing names to the Council of Ministers.

On external interventions after a series of meetings held with a number of ambassadors, Nassar asserted that “the only question that the ambassadors raised is related to the resurrection coming from abroad,” noting that he is “who asked to help them to restore justice and secure new technologies available to them to accelerate the work of the judges.”

As for the issue of increasing conversation recently about peace with Israel, he said: “The interest of Lebanon and its people is the only criterion for making decisions in domestic and external politics, and we will reach a time when we all are convinced that the interest of Lebanon is going through neutrality and peace, and not to expose any member of the Lebanese people to any harm to any other party.”

He stressed, “The necessity of starting from reconciliation and frankness between the components of the Lebanese people and recognizing the wounds of the other party in order to be able to take the next step, which is to determine where the interest of Lebanon.”

He said: “There is no absolute evil, the absolute evil is that the rulers do not take the interest of their people. There should also be any absolute rejection of any initiative as long as there is a clear internal consensus on it, and I can never speak in the name of the Lebanese state, but I love neutrality for Lebanon, taking into account the decisions of the Arab League Summit held in Beirut, and the two -state solution.

He stressed that “any solution in Lebanon must come as a result of a Lebanese consensus, taking into account the wounds of the Lebanese conscience and the interest of the Lebanese people.”
