Al-Qusayfi criticizes embassies' stance on execution law
The Lebanese Press Editors Syndicate expressed its surprise at a statement attributed to the embassies of Canada, Finland, and the United Kingdom, which welcomes the law passed on August 11, 2026, that authorizes the death penalty for freedom of the press. The syndicate confirmed that this statement constitutes a blatant interference in Lebanon’s sovereign affairs, threatens the unity of the media community, and undermines the efforts of journalists and union members in the country. The syndicate clarified that the repressive law contradicts the embassies’ claims of supporting freedoms and poses risks of undermining media institutions and serving external agendas. It called for respecting Lebanon’s sovereignty and refraining from interfering in its internal affairs.
