Lebanon’s Speaker Nabih Berri has stressed that the idea of the “strong president” that former President Michel Aoun had carried as a slogan for his tenure has “failed miserably.”
During a meeting on Monday with a Press Syndicate delegation, headed by Awni Kaaki, Berri said that a strong president “is the one, who brings the Lebanese people together and around state institutions, not the one who exercises the power of exclusion and fuels differences.”
