Charbel: Lebanese ’’GMJ’’ in LA’s Hands
Lebanese Interior Minister Marwan Charbel stressed that "the Global March to al-Quds'" demonstration in Lebanon is in the hands of the Lebanese army."
"The organizing committee informed us with the movement, and we have no problem in this matter," he asserted stating that "Lebanon stands by the Palestinians in condition that no problem happens similar to the last year."
Charbel further highlighted that "our role is to maintain security and order until the arrival of the march to the the selected point, and I think that the army had made up its mind in this context."
"Lebanese army may prevent access to areas in which United Nation's Interim Forces are present," the minister confirmed in remarks to "al-Joumhoria" Lebanese daily.
And whether the rally has got a license, Charbel replied: "We, in the Interior Ministry, did not give any license to this matter. The governor is to give such licenses."
He also informed that the "date of the event is at the end of this month, and that there is permanent coordination with the military leadership in all areas."
