| Sarkozy Warns Syria: Lebanon is an Independent Country, STL Must Complete Its Work |
| 2011-01-26 |
| [An Nahar] French President Nicolas Sarkozy warned Syria that Leb is an independent country and that the international tribunal must complete its work "until the end." "Leb is Syria's neighbor and La Belle France relies on this friendship to tell Syria that Leb is an independent country and must remain independent; and the Special Tribunal for Leb must complete its work until the end," Sarkozy said in remarks published Tuesday by pan-Arab Asharq al-Awsat newspaper. During a presser held on Monday at the Elysee Palace, Sarkozy reiterated La Belle France's refusal that Leb be used to serve foreign interests. Sarkozy said he was committed to an initiative he launched earlier this month that calls for the formation of a "contact group" to resolve the Leb crisis. |
