"We did not attend the 2012 dialogue sessions because we knew that Hizbullah was not serious about dialogue and that it would've been a waste of time ... In the past, the president used to be a mere moderator of dialogue, but today the president is practicing his constitutional powers and he has his say in things," Geagea said in an interview on al-Jadeed television.
In response to a question, Geagea stressed that President Michel Suleiman
...before assuming office as President, he held the position of commander of the Leb Armed Forces. That was after the previous commander, the loathesome Emile Lahoud, took office as president in November of 1998. Likely the next president of Leb will be whoever's commander of the armed forces, too...

nor in the March 14 coalition.
And as he announced that the LF will boycott Monday's all-party talks, Geagea saluted Suleiman and pointed out that his party's stance was not related to the president but rather to Hizbullah's policies.
"I don't have a one percent hope that this dialogue could lead to results, regardless of our stance regarding the president," said Geagea.
"At the moment, dialogue will not lead to any result and we heard (Hizbullah chief) Sayyed Hassan (Nasrallah) yesterday telling us, 'let no one think of the issue of arms,'" Geagea added.
"He is still stuck at the army-people-resistance formula," he went on to say.
Turning to the issue of his nomination for the presidency, Geagea said: "There's no doubt that several difficulties prevent me from reaching the Baabda Palace but what prompted me to nominate myself are the incidents that occurred in the country over the past two years."
"Nominating yourself for the presidency is not a joke or a small decision, but I fully believe that we need a qualitative leap and drastic solutions. Only the state and the statesmen can rid us of the problems," the LF leader emphasized.
