MP Merhebi: Lebanon FM acts on instructions from Syria

Share:

March14 MP Mouin Merhebi said on Thursday that Lebanon Foreign Minister Adnan Mansour acts on instructions from his Syrian counterpart, Walid Mouallem, concerning Lebanon’s foreign policy.

“Many ministers, in particular the ‘Lebanese-Syrian’ Minister Mansour, receive instructions from Mouallem and Syrian President Bashar al-Assad,” Merhebi told Free Lebanon radio.

The Future Movement MP slammed Prime Minister Najib Mikati saying that the latter’s stances are not up to “the authorities that his post affords him.”

Mansour said that the meeting of the ministers of foreign affairs in the Arab League ended with an agreement not to issue any statement concerning Syria.

Lebanon on Wednesday backed Syria in rejecting an Arab League statement demanding an end to the bloodshed in the country. “Lebanon stands by brotherly Syria and its stance is clear in this regard,” Mansour told the Hezbollah-run al Nour radio station Wednesday.

Mansour is a member of the Amal Movement which is headed by Speaker Nabih Berri a close ally of Hezbollah .The cabinet of PM Mikati is heavily influenced by Hezbollah, a close ally of Iran and Syria.

    Mansour comes across as the supplicant without being in the presence of his Syrian masters.  In this picture, he appears as a mouse frozen stiff in front of a cat (or pig in this case) that’s about to eat him.

  8. I have known Adnan Mansour for more than thirty years. He is a very honest man and a man of honor. I believe that he is speaking on his behalf and on behalf of Lebanon only. He is not a puppet and surely not the puppet of Syria or of Walid el Muallem. Just give him the chance to prove himself. His only dedication is for Lebanon and for the peace in Lebanon. He never differenciated between a Moslem Lebanese and a Christian Lebanese. I am really proud to be his friend

      Good to hear something positive Phillip … we can hope you are right. But in recent history we do not see an uplifting of Lebanese spirit by any in that ‘controlled’ cabinet. And the ‘brothers’ in Syria are being slaughtered.
