Maronite Patriarch Bechara Boutros Al-Rahi stressed, during Sunday's mass, that 'the President of the Republic is the one authorized to demand the implementation of international resolutions.' Patriarch Al-Rahi added: 'We have always warned against the continued vacancy in the presidential position as it is a political assassination of the consensual system.' Al-Rahi pointed to another vacancy in the state, saying: 'There is another vacancy in the Military Academy as there will be no students for the second year, and who will protect the rights of those accepted?" Al-Rahi concluded by calling on those concerned to open the Military Academy so that there is no vacancy greater than that of the Presidency of the Republic. Source:National News Agency - Lebanon
