President of the Republic, General Joseph Aoun, addressed on Tuesday the emergency Arab summit in Cairo, stressing that there will be no peace without the liberation of the last inch of Lebanon’s recognized territories, and there will be no peace without the State of Palestine.

“Lebanon has taught me that Palestine is a cause of right which requires might.”

President Aoun reminded the conferees that ‘Israel’ was still occupying Lebanese territories and holding Lebanese captives.

For the Palestinian cause to be the epitome of a universal human right, we shall open our countries up to the entire world, rather than isolate them, he added.

“In my country, just as in Palestine, Israel continues to occupy lands, to launch daily aggressions, and to claim innocent lives every day, leaving people martyred or wounded, destroying properties, and causing rivers of blood and tears to flow. I bow before their suffering.”

There can be no peace without the restoration of the legitimate and full rights of the Palestinians, President Aoun affirmed.
