Maronite Patriarch Cardinal Mar Bechara Boutros Rahi pointed out that “the root of our political crisis lies in violating the Constitution, which is sacred and untouchable worldwide” asking: “How is it be possible to keep violating the Constitution without electing a president? And electing a president restores confidence in Lebanon and its institutions."

Patriarch Rahi added, in his Sunday sermon in Bkerke: “We stand united with the mothers of the August 4th explosion victims, demanding justice, and this cause will not be forgotten, nor will their demands fade away." --- MTV English News
