BEITEDDINE, Lebanon, Aug 4 (AFP) - Lebanese President Emile Lahoud said Saturday he hoped Maronite patriarch Nasrallah Sfeir's "historic" trip to this region to reconcile Druze and Christians would hasten the return of Christian refugees ousted in 1976.
The patriarch praised "the historic role of the Jumblatt family" and recalled that Kamal Jumblatt, Walid's father, "was murdered for his patriotic stance." Kamal Jumblatt was strongly opposed to Syrian troops entering Lebanon in 1976 and was murdered some months later.
Jumblatt was more direct and said that "balanced relations, which still respect the sovereignty of Lebanon, will serve the interests of both countries." He stressed that "Lebanon must take into account the strategic interests of Syria with regards to the threat posed by Israel."
