Kataeb Urges Weapon Restrictions and Economic Plan

The Kataeb Party emphasized the necessity of implementing the decision to restrict weapons in Lebanon, asserting that the sovereignty of the state and the unification of weapons under its control are essential to halt foreign interventions. They pointed out that the presence of weapons outside the state's authority has not deterred Israel; rather, it has helped expand its occupation of South Lebanon. The party also called on the government to swiftly execute its decisions, including the disarmament of Hezbollah and the immediate deployment of the army and security agencies to carry out this task. In light of worsening social and economic conditions, the Kataeb urged an urgent economic emergency plan, which should include reducing fuel prices (diesel and gasoline), settling outstanding dues owed by institutions, especially Electricite du Liban, advancing financial reforms, and combating tax evasion to halt the economic decline. They emphasized that achieving stability requires disarming all weapons and the state's control over the entire territory, to enable reconstruction, attract investments, and put Lebanon back on a path toward resurgence.
