So I said to myself, I hope this dream will come true. Frankly, the one who ruined Lebanon is outside the will of the Lebanese, and to be frank that the Cairo agreement in 1969 was the one that ruined Lebanon and reached what we reached. Today, we are visiting the Republican Palace, which has remained vacant for more than two years. We congratulate the Lebanese people for the election of His Excellency the President and support great hopes for their success in building the state of security, justice and truth. We must also say that the way to form a government is an indication that the era of work has started and the dreams of the Lebanese will achieve it, God willing.

He added: “President Aoun welcomed the delegation of the Press Syndicate, noting the role of the media, and wished that the hopes of the Lebanese will fulfill. President Aoun said: I am the President of the Republic of all of Lebanon and in front of us now an opportunity for us to benefit from it, to rebuild Lebanon on national foundations away from sectarianism, sectarianism and political subordination. My ambition is that my son is a country where our children and our grandchildren live in safety and reassurance, and that will only be through the construction of the state. I am confident that if the clear will is available, then we are able to build Lebanon and have the capabilities that allow us to do so.

His Excellency the President added: We have difficulties in front of us that we will work to overcome, foremost of which is the situation in the south, especially the completion of the Israeli withdrawal on February 18. We are following contacts to compel Israel to withdraw, and we communicate with influential countries, especially the United States of America and France, to reach the appropriate solution.

President Aoun talked about freedom, and he emphasized his absolute belief in it, pointing out that freedom is a responsibility, and the role of the media either to be permeated or destroyed. You must decide, but I want to contribute with us to the march of advancement and rescue. President Aoun called on the media to not attack sister and friendly countries and said, “Say your opinion without attacking or offering. We want- the president added- to restore the confidence of countries and encourage the coming of our brothers in the Arab countries and the Gulf states to invest in Lebanon. The reconstruction and rescue is not an individual work, because one hand does not clap. The important thing is that the intentions will be described because our goal is to build a state, and today the opportunity is available for reform.

President Aoun added during the meeting: I have no difference between Lebanese and another. We are all brothers who live together and build together Lebanon, which we want. I tell you: criticize us if we make a mistake, and let your criticism be building without crazy, for construction criticism corrects performance. Our goal is one with the prime minister and the new ministers, which is the interest of Lebanon. President Aoun concluded by saying: I want to leave after 6 years and my conscience is comfortable. “
