Zahra says agreement can be reached with Hariri over Armenian seat in Beirut I
April 5, 2009
Lebanese Forces MP Antoine Zahra told Future News on Sunday that an
agreement will be reached with Future leader MP Saad Hariri over the
Armenian Catholic seat in Beirut I district. `We will make sure that
everybody is represented, and let us wait for the Future movement’s
candidates. The Henchag and Ramgavar parties are allies of the Future
movement, and I think a solution will be reached with MP Saad Hariri.’
Zahra spoke about the LF nomination of Richard Koyoumdjian for the
Armenian seat in Beirut I district, saying his party’s announcement of
its candidates during its ceremony at BIEL hall on Saturday was
`neither the Koran nor the Bible.’ He rejected accusations that LF was
taking others’ share.
Zahra reiterated that LF does not want its representation in the
parliament to be equivalent to the popular support it has. `We have
offered several concessions for the sake of March 14, and this is our
duty.’
