Samy Gemayel is the nephew of Bachir Gemayel, a Lebanese President-elect who was assassinated by a Syrian terrorist in 1982
Lebanese politician Samy Gemayel, the President of the Lebanese Phalanges Party, said in an October 8, 2021 interview on Al-Jadeed TV (Lebanon) that Lebanon should “treat Syria the same way it treats Israel,” and that it should only interact with it through mediators.
Gemayel said that Syria is planning to blow up Lebanese people, like it had assassinated Lebanese leaders in the past.
He added that Lebanon should reach agreements with its neighbors if it can, and that it should be a Lebanese interest to bring justice, peace, stability, and honor to Lebanon’s people rather than to fight wars to annihilate Syria or Israel.
