The Lebanese House Speaker Nabih Berri viewed that the Western officials' visits to Lebanon "aim at using our country as a base to overturn". "We recognize that there are attempts to reverse geography and to create tensions with Syria from the north," he emphasized.

During his speech at the International Intellectual Conference to honor the two scolars Mohammed Makki al-Jezeni and Zinedine Aljbai, berri warned that "we must be alert and aware who saved the unity of this country and who destroyed and occupied it many times."

Berri cautioned that foreign intervention in the peoples' movement in the region is seeking to achieve the objectives of war of control they waged through fleets and occupation in both Iraq and Afghanistan. "

Noting that we are witnessing an attempt o put Syria under foreign pressure, he stressed that "we are satisfied that the Syrian army knows its national duties of and that there is no history of sectarian conflict in Syria," clarifying that "what Syria is witnessing opens the door of challenge to another correction movement led by President Bashar al-Assad and putting Syria in the future ".

Berri proposed the Arab situation explaining that "we put our hands on our hearts as we are monitoring the will to trap Egypt in the sectarian division," hoping that "the Egyptians are able to complete the crossing into the new global age of the living and free people and that the Egyptian forces are able to protect the achievements of the youths' movement ".
