BEIRUT: Progressive Socialist Party (PSP) leader MP Walid Jumblatt said on Sunday that the Syrian regime posed a danger to Lebanon's "independence movement," referring to his anti-Damascus March 14 Forces. "The Syrian regime is the first and last danger that the independence movement is facing," he told his party's general assembly, which was held in the town of Baakline in the Chouf Mountains, southeast of Beirut.
Jumblatt said that next year's parliamentary elections would decide Lebanon's fate in the near future.
"If the March 14 Forces lose the elections, the country will return to the period of Syrian tutelage," he said.
