HIS HOLINESS ARAM I CONTINUES RECEIVING LEBANESE POLITICAL PARTY LEADERS
AS LEGISLATIVE ELECTIONS APPROACH
The leader of the Liberty Front Party Dr. Fuad Abi Nader visited His
Holiness Aram I in Antelias on Friday 27 March 2009, at the Catholicosate in
Antelias. Dr. Abi Nader had come to explain the position of his party
regarding the forthcoming Parliamentary elections and their list of
candidates. While the Lebanese Parliament acts as a secular democratic
legislative body, Spiritual Heads of the officially recognized Confessional
Communities are always consulted formally and informally on important
matters.
Catholicos Aram I shared his position regarding elections with his guest. He
said that elections should be organized on the basis of mutual respect, both
of opponents and party positions. Rather than leading the country into
conflict, all party positions should converge on the goals of safeguarding
the sovereignty of Lebanon and the unity of its people.
