's fighting in Syria and that this reality must change."
"Any talks to overcome the current security situation in the country necessitates a change in the reality of things and this is what's expected from the new cabinet. Any cabinet should adopt new policies," Geagea said during a presser held in Maarab.
"And therefore, a ministerial policy statement formula that insists on respecting all parties' stances becomes useless because the problem lies with one of these parties and its decisions," he added.
Geagea considered that the deteriorating security situation in Leb is caused by the fact that the state "does not own the military or the security decisions."
"But Hizbullah does, and the party is confiscating these decisions and fighting in Syria," he stressed.
He continued: "Hizbullah is not fighting fundamentalist groups in Syria but the Free Syrian Army

The LF leader assured that if the Baabda Declaration was not implemented, the security situation would remain the same.
"This means that social conditions in Leb will continue to deteriorate," he noted.
"Any cabinet that does not change the reality of Hizbullah's fighting in Syria does not promise much."
The committee tasked with drafting a ministerial polity statement concluded its sixth meeting on Wednesday without reaching a final accord on its formula with media reports revealing that the Baabda Declaration will not be mentioned per se, but would be replaced instead with "the conclusions of the national dialogue sessions."

"The presence of such a regime in Syria is the reason for ISIL's existence," he said.
"The regime sought to create it in Iraq and therefore both the Damascus rulers and ISIL must be eliminated," Geagea pointed out.
